Depends on the country and it depends on the time period your inquiring about. The top 10 of today may be different than the top 10 in history. Anyway, nobody knows this off the top of their head. That's a very heavy list for someone to look up. The National Foundation for Infectious Diseases in Washington D.C. released the following list of the top 10 infectious diseases on which it concentrated its efforts in 1999: * Antimicrobial resistance and emerging infections. * HIV and AIDS. * Vaccine-preventable diseases. * Nosocomial infections (infections acquired in a hospital setting) and opportunistic infections (infections that occur because of the altered physiological state of the patient, such as when someone is on certain antibiotics for long periods of time). * Gastrointestinal, diarrheal and foodborne diseases. * Viral hepatitis. * Tuberculosis. * Sexually transmitted diseases. * Zoonotic diseases (diseases communicable from animals to man). * Tropical infectious diseases.
Communicable diseases are diseases that are passed from person to person. Ten examples of communicable disease are the common cold, whooping cough, HIV, gastroenteritis, strep throat, gonorrhea, conjunctivitis, fifth disease, hepatitis, and rotavirus.

non-communicable diseases
Communicable diseases are diseases that pass from one human to another or from an animal to a human. Examples include impetigo, chicken pox, flu, tuberculosis and MRSA.
Some examples of communicable diseases are: flu, herpes, common cold, chicken pox and measles.Measles are one example of a communicable disease. Also, HIV/AIDS , Rabies, the Flu, and MIRSA are all considered communicable diseases.
Because non-communicable diseases are not passed from one person to another - communicable diseases are.
Diseases are frequently referred to as communicable or non-communicable. Communicable diseases comprise infectious diseases such as tuberculosis and measles, while non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are mostly chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, cancers, and diabetes. That leads to the term communicable.
Communicable: can be spread through a community (contagious) Non-Communicable: not spread with contact (usually genetic)
The scope and significance of communicable diseases is that they are all illnesses that are caused by some kind of infectious agent. Communicable diseases are also called infectious diseases (or transmissible diseases).
What is the mortality rate of communicable diseases in the Philippines?
communicable diseases
Communicable lung diseases would be Tuberculosis, the common cold, HiNi flu, these are contagious. Non-communicable lung diseases would be asthma, COPD, and Lung cancer.
Of course not. Night blindness is a temporary condition based on circumstances of light-dark. It is not a disease. Communicable diseases must have a carrier and a receiver; one person has to give the disease to another person, and so on. Measles and Mumps are communicable diseases, for two examples.
Control of Communicable Diseases Manual was created in 1915.
