Non-infectious disease is a disease that may be caused by either the environment, nutritional deficiencies or genetic inheritances. Some examples include; Environmental causes such as skin cancer from radiation (from the Sun), or lack of food (e.g. scurvy from lack of Vitamin C), genetic disorders, or any source other than an infection. They can also be caused by drugs and carcinogens (cancer-causing agents).
Many diseases of affluence and mental disorders are non-Infectious Diseases. All genetic disorders are non-infectious. Other examples include: - Cardiovascular disease
- Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
- Hypertension
- Diabetes mellitus type 2
- Attention deficit disorder
- Anorexia nervosa htp://www.womanmagz.com

Anemia, Leukemia, Obesity, Diabetes, Parasitic Infestations, Wounds and fractures, Congenital diseases (present at birth)
Infectious diseases include influenza, gonorrhea, and chickenpox. Non-infectious diseases include heart failure, type 2 diabetes, and osteoarthritis.
yes
No, of course not.
Infectious diseases involve a causative organism, from groups such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and such. Noninfectious diseases involve causes other than specific infectious organisms.
infectious diseases involve a causative organism, from groups such as bacteria, viruses, fungi and such. Noninfectious diseases are not caused by a specific infectious organism. You get an infective disease from a bacteria or a virus or even a fungus. Other diseases are not caused by these but by other things. For example: cancer.
Non infectious diseases are spread by the environment, bad nutrition, genetic inheritance, and hereditary diseases.

It is infectious.
noninfectious diseases dont "spread" as they are "caused by either the environment, nutritional deficiencies, lifestyle choices, or genetic inheritances. Unlike infectious diseases, non-infectious diseases cannot be spread from person to person, although some kinds can be passed down genetically to the children of a carrier."
Infectious Disease can be spread from person to person though coughing or sneezing or some other means.(The Common cold, The Flu). Non-Infectious Disease cannot be spread from person to person. (Cancer, Heart Disease).
Influenza is a highly infectious disease, even when the patient is recovering (unlike many other Infectious Diseases which quit being infectious when the patient begins to recover).
Mumps is an infectious disease.
