Up until a 1962 demonstration of tuberculosis airborne transmission, airborne transmission of all major respiratory diseases was assumed to be of insignificant or moderate consequence over the following fifty years.

Before COVID-19, only a small number of diseases—those that were blatantly spread to people not in the same room—were generally acknowledged as airborne. This is because the contact/droplet paradigm remained popular.

<h3>What does the term "airborne transmission" mean?</h3>
  • The term "airborne transmission" refers to the propagation of droplet nuclei (aerosols) that retain their infectious properties after being suspended in air for a lengthy period of time and over great distances.
  • Bacteria or viruses that cause airborne infections are most frequently spread by tiny respiratory droplets. When a person with the airborne sickness sneezes, coughs, laughs, or exhales in any other way, these droplets are released.

Both statements are true

Explanation:

Many small tree saplings are competing for sunlight on the forest floor because tree saplings in forest floors are often deprived of adequate light as a result of the shade created by bigger trees in the forest. <em>Hence, the saplings jostle for light in order to effectively carry out light-requiring physiological activities such as photosynthesis and chlorophyll synthesis.</em>

It is transmitted from one bird to another through contact and by a vector - the mosquito</em>. The virus is also capable of being contracted by humans where it causes fatal neurological disorders.
