1. ASS
COMMUNICABLE
&
NON -
COMMUNICABLE
DISEASES

2. COMMUNICABLE DISEASES
vs
NON-COMMUNICABLE DISEASES
2 KEY DIFFERENCES
COMMUNICABLE DISEASES
NON- COMMUNICABLE
DISEASES
 A group of slow-
progressing
diseases
 Usually non-
infectious diseases
 Diseases that can
spread from one
person to another
via various means
and methods.
 Usually infectious
diseases

3. A communicable
disease is one that
is spread from one
person to another
through a variety
of ways that
include contact
with blood and
bodily fluids
breathing in an
airborne virus or
by being bitten by
an insect.
COMMUNICABLE DISEASES

4. How do these
communicable diseases
spread?
 A communicable disease is one
that is spread from one person to
another through a variety of ways
that include: contact with blood
and bodily fluids, sexual
intercourse with HIV or other
communicable disease without
condoms,breathing in an airborne
virus; or by being bitten by an

5.  contact with a contaminated surface
or object (Norwalk virus), food
(salmonella, E. coli), blood (HIV,
hepatitis B), or water (cholera
 bites from insects or animals capable
of transmitting the disease (mosquito:
malaria and yellow fever; flea:
plague); and
 travel through the air, such as
tuberculosis or measles.

7. COMMUNICABLE DISEASES
 Staphylococcus
 Gonorrhea
 Chickenpox/Shingles
 HPV
 HIV/AIDS
 Thick- Borne Disease
 Tuberculosis
 Influenza
 Pink eye

8. Staph is usually
spread through
direct contact with a
person who has a
skin infection or is
carrying the
bacteria(MRSA) on
their skin or in their
nose . The bacteria
of this disease is
called methicillin-
resistant
Staphylococcus
aureus (MRSA).
Staphylococcus

9. SYMPTOMS:
•A painful red lump or bump on the
skin. This is often a boil or carbuncle
(cluster of boils).
•Hot, red and swollen skin. This could
be an infection called cellulitis.
•Sores, crusts or blisters. This could be
impetigo, which often affects the face.
•Sore, red eyelids or eyes.

10. Gonorrhea is
transmitted through
sexual contact with the
penis, vagina, mouth,
or anus of an infected
partner. Ejaculation
does not have to occur
for gonorrhea to be
transmitted or
acquired. Gonorrhea
can also be spread
perinatally from mother
to baby during
childbirth.
Gonorrhea

11. SYMPTOMS:
 Anyone with genital
symptoms such as discharge,
burning during urination,
unusual sores, or rash

12. Chickenpox is a
highly contagious
disease caused by
the varicella-zoster
virus (VZV). It can
cause an itchy,
blister-like rash

symptoms. The rash
first appears on the
chest, back, and face,
and then spreads over
the entire body.
Chickenpox/ Shingles

13. SYMPTOMS:
 a rash that turns into itchy,
fluid-filled blisters that
eventually turn into scabs.

papillomavirus
(HPV) is the
most common
sexually
transmitted
infection in the
United States.
HPV

 Most people who have it do not
realise and do not have any
problems. But sometimes the
virus can cause painless growths
or lumps around your vagina,
penis or anus (genital warts

16. Human
immunodeficiency
virus infection and
acquired immune
deficiency syndrom
(HIV /AIDS) A
condition caused
by infection with
the human
Immunodeficiency
virus (HIV). A
person may not
notice any
symptoms
HIV/ AIDS

17. SYMPTOMS:
 Fever.
 Headache.
 Muscle aches and joint pain.

sores.
 Swollen lymph glands, mainly on
the neck.
 Diarrhea.
 Weight loss.

18. Tick-borne pathogens
can be passed to
humans by the bite of
infected ticks. Ticks can
be infected with
bacteria, viruses, or
parasites. Some of the
most common tick-
borne diseases in the
United States include:
Lyme disease,
babesiosis, ehrlichiosis,
Rocky Mountain
Spotted Fever,
anaplasmosis, Southern
Tick-Associated Rash
Illness, Tick-Borne
Relapsing Fever, and
tularemia.
Thick- Borne Disease

19. SYMPTOMS:
 Tickborne diseases can cause
headache, fatigue, and muscle
aches. People with Lyme disease
may also have joint pain. Rash.
Lyme disease, Southern tick-
associated rash illness (STARI),
Rocky Mountain spotted fever
(RMSF), ehrlichiosis, and
tularemia can cause distinctive
rashes.

20. Tuberculosis (TB) is a
disease caused by
germs that are spread
from person to person
through the air. TB
usually affects the
lungs, but it can also
affect other parts of the
body, such as the brain,
the kidneys, or the
spine. A person with TB
can die if they do not
get treatment.
Tuberculosis

21. SYMPTOMS:

22. Flu is a
contagious
respiratory illness
caused by
influenza viruses
that infect the

sometimes the
lungs
Influenza

feverish/chills. cough. sore
throat. runny or stuffy nose.
muscle or body aches.
headaches. fatigue
(tiredness)

24. Pink eye is an
inflammation of the
transparent membrane
that lines the eyelid and
eyeball. This membrane
is called the
conjunctiva. When
small blood vessels in
the conjunctiva become
swollen and irritated,
they're more visible.
This is what causes the
whites of the eyes to
appear reddish or pink.
Pink eye also is called
conjunctivitis.

• A discharge in one or both eyes that
forms a crust during the night that may
prevent your eye or eyes from opening
in the morning.
• Tearing.
• Sensitivity to light, called photophobia.

27. Non-communicable
diseases are diseases
that are not spread
through infection or
through other people,
but are typically caused
by unhealthy
behaviours. They are the
leading cause of death
worldwide and present
a huge threat to health
and development,
particularly in low- and
middle-income
countries.

secondhand tobacco
smoke, chemical fumes,
dust, or other forms of
air pollution.
Chronic Lung Disease
