The term is "fomites." Fomites are objects or materials that can carry and transmit infectious organisms, adding to environmental contamination and potential disease transmission.
Three examples of persons who may act as sources of infecting microorganisms include healthcare workers, who can transmit pathogens between patients; asymptomatic carriers, who harbor infectious agents without showing symptoms; and individuals with active infections, who can spread microorganisms through respiratory droplets, bodily fluids, or direct contact. These sources can play significant roles in the transmission of diseases within communities.
No. Mosquitoes transmit protists through biting, which is where diseases like malaria come from.
