Ringworm is a fungal infection caused by dermatophytes, not a virus or bacteria, and it is not transmitted by a vector in the way that diseases like malaria or Lyme disease are. Instead, it spreads through direct skin-to-skin contact with an infected person or animal, as well as through contaminated surfaces, such as towels, clothing, or gym equipment. It can also be contracted from infected soil. Good hygiene practices can help prevent its spread.
