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.
Noninfectious diseases are caused by factors such as genetics, lifestyle choices (e.g. diet, exercise, smoking), environmental factors (e.g. pollution, radiation), and aging. These diseases develop over time and are not spread from person to person like infectious diseases. Examples of noninfectious diseases include heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.
infectious
It is infectious.
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."
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).
It is sometimes infectious but not always
Mumps is an infectious disease.
