Modes of Transmission of Infectious Diseases:
Infectious diseases can spread through various modes of transmission. These modes include direct contact, where a person-to-person transfer of pathogens occurs, indirect contact through touching contaminated surfaces or objects, airborne transmission through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes, vector-borne transmission where insects or animals act as carriers, and food and waterborne transmission, which happens when individuals ingest contaminated food or water. Understanding these modes of transmission is crucial for preventing the spread of infectious diseases.
