What is Communicable Disease?

Communicable diseases are illnesses that spread from one person to another or from an animal to a person, or from a surface or a food. Diseases can be spread by:

  • Physical contact with an infected person: touch, sexual intercourse, fecal/oral transmission, droplets
  • Contact with contaminated surface or object: food, water, blood
  • Bites from insects or animals capable of transmitting the disease (ex: mosquito or flea)
  • Travel through the air
