What are the infectious disease??.,.,
Is hepatitis B one of it?.,.,
Infectious disease and contageous.,.,same or not?? Hepatitis B IS infectious, but not contagious. Contagious means that the disease/bacteria can be contracted by simply coming into contact with someone/something that is infected. For instance, Tuberculosis is contagious...all you have to do is breathe the air around someone infected.
Infectious means that a disease is contracted by the sharing of infected needles, unprotected sex, and coming into contact with infected body fluid. Basically, with an infectious disease, the virus/bacteria has to actually get into the body by means of behavior, accident, etc. Hope this answers your question. You can't get rid of hep A, B, or C. But things that are contagious will usually go away unless its a STD... |
