A disease reservoir is a place where infectious agents "hang out." For instance, the large intestine is a normal location for E. coli. Certain streams are common locations for Giardia.
The host doesnt show symptoms and the carrier does
In the context of disease transmission, a reservoir is a place where a pathogen can live and multiply, such as an animal or environment. A vector is an organism that can carry and transmit the pathogen from the reservoir to a host. The relationship between a reservoir and a vector is that the reservoir provides a source of the pathogen, while the vector helps spread the pathogen to new hosts, contributing to the transmission of the disease.
In the context of diseases, a reservoir refers to a place where infectious agents, such as pathogens, can persist and then transmit to a susceptible host. Reservoirs can be humans, animals, or environmental sources like soil or water. Identification and control of reservoirs are crucial in disease prevention.

An endemic disease is one that is continuously present in the population, often because there is a non-human reservoir for the microbe that causes it. An epidemic disease is one that spreads in a sudden, massive surge within a population that is largely without immune protection.
Yes, diphtheria has a human reservoir. The bacterium Corynebacterium diphtheriae, which causes the disease, primarily infects humans and can be found in the throat and skin of asymptomatic carriers. These carriers can spread the bacteria to others, especially in areas with low vaccination rates. Vaccination has significantly reduced the incidence of diphtheria, but the human reservoir remains a concern for potential outbreaks.
Because charity begins at home, you have to be clean in order not to be a reservoir in the chain of infection if you not clean you can be a disease carrier
Food and water infected with pathogenic bacteria that cause diarrhea.
it is ' a reservoir'
The major lakes in Wyoming are Yellowstone Lake, Glendo Reservoir, Bighorn Lake, Boysen Reservoir, Flaming Gorge Reservoir, Seminoe Reservoir, Alcova Reservoir, and Keyhole Reservoir.
No. A lake is a lake, a reservoir is a reservoir. Two different things
There is no reservoir.
