Blood borne transmitted diseases can be easily traced back to its sources as they need a physical medium to transfer which we can measure, calculate, contain and treat while air borne transmitted diseases lack this feature. The microorganism do not need a physical medium to transfer from one host to another making it difficult to contain the virus.

The reason for this is that we can trace bloodbourne diseases back to a direct source, we an collect samples, and identify an approximate, if not exact, number of people infected. The problem with airbourne disease is that air doesn't stop moving. We can't measure the exact number of people who inhaled the specific portion of infected air, who then breathe it in another location, and may transmit more of the pathogens in that area.

Put simply, bloodbourne pathogens are more confined, spread less quickly, and are easier to track than airbourne ones.

What are some reasons why using drugs is dangerous
algol [13]

Answer:

Drugs can affect feelings and moods, judgment, decision making, learning, and memory. But they can also cause or worsen other health problems—cancer; heart disease; lung disease; liver function; mental disorders; and infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, and tuberculosis.

Explanation:

Drugs excite the parts of the brain that make you feel good. But after you take a drug for a while, the feel-good parts of your brain get used to it. Then you need to take more of the drug to get the same good feeling. Soon, your brain and body must have the drug to just feel normal.
