A communicable disease is that in which the causative organism is transmissible from one person to another either directly or indirectly through a carrier or vector.
Infection is the invasion of an organism's body tissues by disease-causing agents, their multiplication, and the reaction of host tissues to these organisms and the toxins they produce. Infectious disease, also known as transmissible disease or communicable disease, is illness resulting from an infection. Droplet contact, also known as the respiratory route, and the resultant infection can be termed airborne disease. 2  If an infected person coughs or sneezes on another person the microorganisms, suspended in warm, moist droplets, may enter the body through the nose, mouth or eye surfaces.
