No, multiple sclerosis (MS) is not considered a communicable disease. It is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system mistakenly attacks the protective covering of nerves in the central nervous system. MS is believed to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors, but it cannot be transmitted from person to person.
