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.
