D

Tuberculosis


The figure shows the air transmission of diseases. Air-transmitted diseases are easily transmitted if we are in close proximity to the infected person. However, in closed areas, the droplet nuclei recirculate and pose a risk to everybody. Overcrowdedness and poorly ventilated housing is a major factor in the spread of airborne diseases. Many common infections can spread by airborne transmission at least in some cases, including Anthrax (inhalational), Chickenpox, Influenza, Measles, Smallpox, Cryptococcosis, and Tuberculosis. Diabetes, on the other hand, is a non-communicable disease.
