Diseases that can be transmitted through the air include respiratory infections such as influenza, tuberculosis, and COVID-19. These diseases are spread by respiratory droplets or aerosols released when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. Other airborne diseases include measles and chickenpox, which can linger in the air for extended periods, making them highly contagious. Proper ventilation and protective measures, such as masks, can help reduce the risk of transmission.

Infectious diseases that attack the respiratory system are usually transmitted how?
through the air
Explain the 3 ways diseases are transmitted List the Personal protection equipment you would need for transmission based precautions?
the 3 main ways diseases ae transmitted are through direct contact, air transmitted droplets and bite by infected animal
Difference between airborne and waterborne diseases?
Waterborne diseases are caused by microorganisms which are directly transmitted when contaminated fresh water is consumed. Airborne diseases are those diseases which are caused by pathogenic microbial agents which get discharged through coughing, sneezing, laughing or through close personal contact.
