People who are carriers harbor pathogens in their bodies without showing symptoms of illness themselves. This asymptomatic state allows them to transmit the pathogens to others, potentially leading to outbreaks or infections in susceptible individuals. Carriers play a crucial role in the spread of diseases, as they can unknowingly infect others while appearing healthy. Understanding this phenomenon is essential for effective disease control and prevention strategies.

A carrier of germs refers to an organism, often a person or animal, that harbors and can transmit pathogens (such as bacteria, viruses, or parasites) without necessarily showing symptoms of illness. These carriers can unknowingly spread the germs to others, facilitating the transmission of diseases. For example, someone who is asymptomatic for an illness may still carry and spread the infectious agents to others, posing a public health risk.
