Detailed explanation-1: -Factors promoting contact transmission act at the pathogen, host or environmental levels. Common pathogen factors are immune evasion, high viral load and low infectious dose. Common host factors are crowding, promiscuity and the presence of co-infections.
Detailed explanation-2: -There is a wide range of infectious diseases that are transmitted by contaminated food and water. Many are caused by pathogens (bacteria, viruses or parasites) transmitted via the faecal-oral route (consumption of food and drinks contaminated with faeces).
