Mostly from not washing your hands frequently enough. All we have to do is touch something that is infected, then touch food that is placed into our mouths ... bingo ... infected with germs.

Germs can also enter the body through cuts, by breathing, or by food that has bacteria. Its not necessary for your hands to have disease and only then can the germ enter.

Depends on the type of infection. Respiratory infections are spread through contact of respiratory particulates (breathing, coughing, sneezing and hand to hand contact), skin infections sometimes can be spread by direct contact (but often not). STDs are spread through sexual contact.
