Basically, there are five different stages of infectious disease which include the incubation stage, the prodormal stage, the illness stage, the decline stage and the convalescence. Firstly, the incubation period is a period where there are no signs and symptoms detected while the virus is incubating.
The illness period is the third of the four major stages of infectious disease. The first is the incubation period followed by prodromal period. After prodromal is the illness period. During the illness stage, symptoms characteristic of a particular disease are recognized. It is also at this stage that the infectious disease is highly communicable. When the patient overcomes the disease, the ensuing stage is the convalescent period.
