Infections can be transmitted through various routes, including:
-
Direct Contact: This involves physical interaction with an infected person or surface, such as touching, kissing, or sexual contact.
-
Airborne Transmission: Pathogens can be spread through droplets or aerosols when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks, allowing the virus or bacteria to be inhaled by others.
-
Vector-Borne Transmission: Certain infections are spread by vectors like insects (e.g., mosquitoes or ticks) that carry the pathogens from one host to another.
