normal state of organisms
that affect the
performance of vital

16. 1. The
Host
Factors in
the
Development
of Diseases

17. a. Man may become an obligate host
- Man is an obligate host to the virus of
measles. Only in cells of man can the
virus of measles survive.

18. b. Man may be a principal host.
- Man is the reservoir of infection.
c. Man may be an occasional host.

19. 2. Disease Agents
– there are substances or elements, the
presence or absence of which, may
imitate or perpetrate a disease process.
- It causes uncomfortable bodily
reactions
such as fever and aching

20. – there are ecological
factors which may be
favorable or
unfavorable in the dev’t
of diseases.

21. Communicable
Common
Diseases

22. - A disease that usually require
a more specialized route of
infection
- A disease resulting from the
presence of pathogenic micro-
bial agent
Communicable disease

31. CHAIN OF INFECTION

32. airborne contact, either through inhaling the
droplet spray from a sneeze or breathing in air
that carries a particular pathogen

33. food-borne infection
- If you eat something contaminated by microorganisms

34. Water-borne
-from drinking water and indirectly from foods washed or sprayed with water
containing pathogens.
can also invade your body if you wade or swim in contaminated streams, lakes
and reservoirs.

35. The tiniest and the most virulent among the
pathogens. Examples of diseases: upper
respiratory infections and colds, flu, herpes,
papilloma viruses that cause cervical cancer,
hepatitis viruses that cause liver infection, HIV,
hemorrhagic fever, SARS
Viruses

36. Simple one-celled organism. Examples of
diseases: diphtheria, tuberculosis, tetanus,
gonorrhea, scarlet fever
Bacteria

37. Threadlike fibers and reproductive spores.
Examples of diseases: athletes foot, diseases of
the skin and scalp, hair, nail, lungs, ringworm
Fungi

38. Single celled animals that release enzymes
and toxins that destroy cells or interfere with
their infection. Examples of diseases: malaria,
amoebic dysentery, trichomoniasis, vaginitis
Protozoa

39. Consist of 3 animal pathogens namely; round
worms, tapeworms and flukes
Metazoans

40. Very small intracellular pathogens that are
structurally in between virus and bacteria.
Examples of diseases: typhus, rocky mountain
spotted fever
Rickettsiae

41. Common cold – is among the most common
communicable diseases in the world. This is a
disease of the upper respiratory tract which is
caused by a virus.
Have plenty of rest, drink plenty of fluid, eat
nutritious foods

42. Influenza or flu – is a highly contagious
disease. It spreads form a person to a person
through spitting, sneezing, coughing, kissing,
or using articles freshly soiled with discharges
from the nose and throat of an infected
person.
Avoid crowds, use your own toilet articles and
handkerchief, build up your resistance with
nutritious foods, good rest and sleep and
regular exercise, avoid sudden changes in
temperature and exposure to rain and observe
strict personal hygiene.

43. Pneumonia – is a serious contagious disease of
the lungs caused by pneumococcus and other
bacteria. It is spread through droplets from a
patient’s cough or sneeze, direct contact like
kissing, or the use of articles freshly soiled with
a discharge for a patient’s nose or throat.

44. Tuberculosis – happens to grown-ups while
primary complex to children

45. Hepatitis – is an inflammation of the liver
caused by a virus or, less commonly, by certain
medications or toxin.

46. HIV Infection and AIDS – (Acquired
Immunodeficiency Syndrome) is an immune
deficient state caused by HIV (human
immunodeficiency virus).

47. •A balanced diet
•Regular exercise is the preventive measure to communicable diseases
•Recording your health history
•Health check-up

48. •Quarantine – refers to the limitation of the freedom to be in contact with persons who have come sufficiently near or have beenexposed to a source of infectio
•Reducing communicability which means treatment of cases
•Eradicating of animal reservoirs
•Controlling the means of spread such as sanitation of food, milk, water and air, proper sewage and garbage disposal.
•Washing one’s hand is the best and common way of preventing the spread of infectious disease.
