What is the difference between Infectious diseases and Chronic diseases?

I would like a clearer explanation of the difference between infectious diseases and chronic diseases.

infectious and chronic diseases are all brought on by mostly the same issues. (viral, bacterial and some a combo of environment, ie., chemicals, pollution ect).

what makes them different is the body can let some of the virons run it's course, whereas the chronicity of a disease the body can't fight off.

Diseases are always infectious, otherwise would wouldn't have them, regardless of the chronic nature or the short lived kind.

Genetics (w/ combination of pollutions) can sometimes play a role in the ability to fight off certain diseases. Sometimes an organ is so severely affected that the body can't fight it off.

Sometimes the natural interferon process in the body is not elevated enough to help ward off infection.

Bottom line:
short lived infection=bodies defense figured how to fight it and win.

long lived or chronic=body is not able to ward off the infection in it's entirety.

An infectious disease is caused by bacteria, viruses, etc.
A chronic disease is anything that lasts for a long time. You could have a chronic infection, which would be a germ that lasts for a long time.

Infectious diseases are caused by germs, microbes, viruses, etc, and can be passed from one person to the other.

Chronic diseases are the ones that are incurable like diabetes, arthritis, high blood pressure, etc.

Infectious means it can be treated and will go away....Chronic means you will probaly have it forever, but can be treated

Infectious diseases are easily spread.
Chronic diseases are long-lasting.

A disease maybe infectious but not chronic and vice-versa.
