Carrier diseases are infections where an individual harbors a pathogen without showing symptoms, yet can still transmit the disease to others. Common examples include typhoid fever, caused by Salmonella Typhi, and certain viral infections like hepatitis B. Carriers may remain asymptomatic for long periods, making it challenging to identify and control the spread of these diseases. Understanding and managing carriers is crucial in public health to prevent outbreaks.
