Question

One of the means of indirect transmission of a disease is _____.

• A. Sneezing
• B. Coughing
• C. Through placenta
• D. Using utensils of patients

Answer 1

The correct option is A Sneezing

Sneezing, coughing and through the placenta are the direct means of transmission as pathogens are directly transmitted from one infected person to the next person. While using utensils of patients is the indirect means of transmission because, first pathogen is transmitted to utensils and then from utensils to the person who will use that.

Hence the correct answer is $D$.
