TERMS
Pathogen - a micorbe that
causes disease
Transmission of a disease
– the path a pathogen
takes to get from host to
host
Host – the infected
organism
Carrier – an organism that
harbors a pathogen and
can transmit the
pathogen to others but
shows no symptoms

DISEASE TRANSMISSION PATHWAYS: DIRECT CONTACT
Direct contact - transmission
requires physical contact
with an infected person
Direct contact through:
kissing, sexual contact,
oral secretions (saliva),
blood, or contact with body
lesions(sores or open
wounds).
Examples of pathogens
spread though direct
contact: Cold, flu, HIV,
Staphylococcus bacteria,
Hepatitis A

Food/air-borne
Vector borne
DISEASE TRANSMISSION PATHWAYS: INDIRECT CONTACT
Indirect contact – a person is
infected from contact with a
contaminated surface (called a
fomite). Some microbes can
survive on surfaces for a long
period of time
Indirect contact includes: touching
contaminated surfaces then
putting contaminated hands or
fingers in mouth, eyes, nose, etc.
Examples: flu, Hepatitis B, HIV (via
contaminated needles)
Fomites

DISEASE TRANSMISSION PATHWAYS: FOOD BORNE PATHOGENS
Food Borne- transmission through
eating or drinking water or food
that is contaminated with feces
(poop) or eating contaminated
meat that is undercooked meat
Process – Pathogens enter the
body through ingestion and
inside the digestive system
(usually within the intestines)
these microorganisms multiply
and are then shed from the body
in feces.

Food/air-borne
Vector borne
DISEASE TRANSMISSION PATHWAYS: AIR BORNE
Air Borne- residue from evaporated
droplets or dust particles
containing microorganisms
remain suspended in air for long
periods of time, capable of
surviving for long periods of time
outside the body and must be
resistant to drying.
transmission occurs when these
droplets enter the upper and
lower respiratory tracts of a
person
Examples: Tuberculosis ,
Chickenpox, Measles, Valley
Fever

Food/air-borne
Vector borne
DISEASE TRANSMISSION PATHWAYS: VECTOR BORNE
Vector Borne - vectors are animals that
are capable of transmitting
diseases, transmission requires
physical contact with a vector. Or
the vector‘s feces
Vector Borne includes: Examples of
vectors are flies, mites, fleas, ticks,
rats, dogs, and mosquitoes (the
most common vector ). Mosquitoes
transfer disease through the saliva
which comes in contact with their
hosts when they are withdrawing
blood.
Examples: malaria, rabies, Lyme
disease, West Nile Virus, Giardia,
bubonic plague

VACCINES
Produced using bacteria or Examples for virual
viruses that are……..
pathogens
Examples for bacterial
pathogens
weakened (attenuated): can measles, mumps,
only reproduce <20 times.
chickenpox
Typhoid
Inactivated: cannot
reproduce
polio, hepatitis A, influenza,
rabies
plague, cholera
Broken up into proteins
taken from the surface of
the virus OR toxins
produced by the bacteria.
hepatitis B, HPV
Purpose: to
stimulate the
production of
antibodies and
provide immunity
to disease
ANTIBIOTICS – CHEMICAL
MADE TO KILL BACTERIA
90% of antibiotics are
made from bacteria or
fungi
Produced by a process
of fermentation - the
source microorganism
is grown in large
containers (100,000–
150,000 liters or more)
containing a
liquid growth medium.
Antibiotics destroy the
bacteria or prevent
bacteria from
reproducing
ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE
“Each year in the United States, at least 2 million
people become infected with bacteria that are
resistant to antibiotics and at least 23,000 people
die each year as a direct result of these infections.”
(Threat 2013)
The diversity of
helpful bacteria in
your colon can be
negatively
affected for up to
one year after
taking antibiotics.
(Fang 2015)

ANTIVIRALS
Made primarily from inactivated viruses
Antivirals do not destroy the viruses - they inhibit the
reproduction by blocking the ‘keys’ on the virus
ANTIFUNGAL
Destroys the cell
wall of the
fungal cells
Prevents the
fungus from
growing and
reproducing

EDz4 (cold facts)
• Ro is the basic
reproduction
number for
infectious diseases
• Ro is the number of
people one
infected person
infects
• For example: an Ro
value of 3 means
that each infected
person will infect 3
other people
