Disease which travels itself from place to place is called:

  • (A) Infectious
  • (B) Endemic
  • (C) Epidemic
  • (D) Airborne
  • Epidemic: This occurs when a contagious disease spreads rapidly in a large section of the population over a short period of time, with cases increasing at a rate that is faster than expected. The disease appears to “move” from one community to another as it spreads from one place to another. Pandemic: This refers to the same phenomenon but on a much larger scale, covering continents, while epidemic is the normal term used when a disease is spreading from place to place.
  • Infectious: This describes the nature of a disease (caused by pathogens like bacteria or viruses) rather than its movement or geographical spread.
  • Endemic: This refers to a disease that is constantly present in a specific permanent location or population, rather than one that is actively traveling to new areas.
  • Airborne: This is a mode of transmission (spreading through the air) rather than a classification of how the disease moves between geographic locations.
