Lets understand about infectious diseases
"Infectious diseases are caused by harmful pathogens entering the body from external sources like viruses, bacteria, fungi, parasites, and prions.
They spread through direct contact, insect bites, contaminated food, water, or soil.
Pathogens enter through the respiratory or digestive systems, open wounds, or other entry points, multiplying and causing various symptoms. Preventive measures, vaccines, and informed choices can help control outbreaks and safeguard public health."
Lets understand about infectious diseases
Viral Infections
Viruses are a piece of information (DNA or RNA) inside of a protective shell (capsid). Viruses are much smaller than your cells and have no way to reproduce on their own. They get inside your cells and use your cells’ machinery to make copies of themselves.
Bacterial Infections
Bacteria are single-celled organisms with their instructions written on a small piece of DNA. Bacteria are all around us, including inside of our body and on our skin. Many bacteria are harmless or even helpful, but certain bacteria release toxins that can make you sick.
Fungal Infections
Like bacteria, there are many different fungi. They live on and in your body. When your fungi get overgrown or when harmful fungi get into your body through your mouth, your nose or a cut in your skin, you can get sick.
TSEs are caused by prions — faulty proteins that cause other proteins in your body, usually in your brain, to become faulty as well. Your body is unable to use these proteins or get rid of them, so they build up and make you sick. Prions are an extremely rare cause of infectious diseases.
