A communicable disease is one which can be transmitted from one person to another, like the common cold. A non-communicable disease is one which cannot be transmitted from person to person, such as cancer.
Diseases are frequently referred to as communicable or non-communicable. Communicable diseases comprise infectious diseases such as tuberculosis and measles, while non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are mostly chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, cancers, and diabetes. That leads to the term communicable.
Chronic diseases and non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are often used interchangeably, but there are distinctions. Chronic diseases refer to a broad category of long-lasting health conditions, which can include both communicable diseases (like HIV/AIDS) and non-communicable diseases. Non-communicable diseases specifically refer to conditions that are not transmitted from person to person, such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Therefore, all NCDs are chronic diseases, but not all chronic diseases are non-communicable.
humans are the host for both diseases
differentiate between non communicable and communicable disease? comm--highly infectious....can be caught and transmitted non comm--cannot be transmitted or caught....they are inherited , genetic or developed through nutritional deficiencies
Communicable diseases are those diseases, which can be transferred from one person to another. They include the infectious diseases, which are caused by various infections by microorganisms. They are also communicable.
No, a brain tumor is not a communicable disease. Brain tumors are abnormal growths of cells in the brain and can arise from a variety of factors, including genetic predisposition and environmental influences, but they cannot be transmitted from one person to another. Communicable diseases are caused by infectious agents such as bacteria, viruses, or parasites that can spread between individuals.
A contagious disease is one that can be easily transmitted from one person to another, typically through direct contact, respiratory droplets, or shared surfaces. A communicable disease, on the other hand, refers to a broader category of diseases that can be spread between individuals, including those transmitted by vectors like insects or through contaminated food and water. While all contagious diseases are communicable, not all communicable diseases are necessarily contagious. Examples include the flu (contagious) and malaria (communicable but not contagious).
A communicable disease is a disease that can be transmitted from one person to another. A contagious disease is a communicable disease that is transmitted to many individuals quickly and easily; highly infectious. For example, the pathogen which causes Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever can be spread to people through a tick bite. RMSF is not considered contagious, but it is communicable. Something like impetigo or the common cold is considered to be contagious.
A disease which is transmitted from one person to other via contact is called communicable or contagious disease . Such diseases are caused by viruses or bacteria e.g. chicken pox , measles etc.
treatment of persons with diseases with antibiotics typically kills the agent and renders them non-infectoius.also eliminate the infectious agent through cooking food washing hands and serilising instruments between use
Communicable means spreadbale. I.e. bacteria and viurses are 'Infectious Diseases' and can therefore spread between people. Non 'spreadble' diseases are things like cancer, Asthma, Pagets disease, ulcerative colitis.. the list is practically endless. False
Please stop using only upper case.
