Chain (Life Cycle) of Infection

reservoir --> exit --> transmission --> susceptible host --> agent -->



source -> transmission -> susceptible host -> source

Infectivity


vs


Pathogencity

infectivity: ability of agent to invade and multiply in a host (ID50)


pathogenicity: ability to produce clinically apparent illness

Virulence

-degree of pathogencity


-measured LD50


-disease severity


-how fatal/deadly a pathogen is

Epidemic


vs


Endemic

epidemic: unexpected outbreak


-Ebola


endemic: constant presence


-Varicella (chickenpox)


-Influenza


sporadic case: occurs infrequently & irregularly

Carriers
