Disease is one of the things that disturb both, humans, animals and even plants. For an individual to be able to perform it's daily activities he or she most be free from disease. What then is this thing called disease.
Disease can be define as any disorder or malfunction of the structural or functional in the body of humans, animals or plant, which show symptoms to that specific location that is been affected. We have two types of disease which are.
1. Infectious disease
2. Non infectious disease
Infectious disease: this is the type of disease that can be transferred from one individual to another. It can be transferred through air or by contact with the infected individuals. This kind of disease is easy to spread in the society as it can move through air. Examples of this disease are,
Chicken pox, common cold, E coli, hiv/aids etc.
Non infectious disease: this is the type of disease that can not be transferred from one host to the other. It is very chronic disease which usually leads to death examples of this non infectious disease are, heart attack, stroke, continental heart disease etc. Therefore one needs to be careful of this disease most especially the infectious disease.

This is of the educative post I have read it in a longer time. Most people are careless with the way they take care of the body which make them contract diseases freely. There are even many people that do not know how to prevent the contraction of these diseases.

To prevent communicable diseases, otherwise known as infectious diseases, we need to make sure that we cover our mouth when we yawn, we don't sit near someone that have this disease. Another thing that we need to take note is that we need to be using on a frequency, nose masks. This will help us to prevent some of these diseases that we may contract through nose, ear and mouth. In the same vein, we may need sanitizer to sanitize our hands after touching.

It seems easier to prevent ourselves from non infectious diseases. These type of diseases are usually hereditary. This is the reason that we need to make sure we do proper counselling before we marry. Some have endangered their children lives by getting married even when they know that they are not compatible health wisely. There are various diseases like sicle cells that are very common as a result of marrying wrong partners.

When we were in primary school then sometimes ago , disease that can be passed from one person to another are always called the communicable disease while those that can't be transferred to another person are the non-communicable disease.

There are so many disease and infection that can affect humans . It seems humans naturally are the weakest in the animal kingdom as animals are much more stronger than humans biologically. That is why animal can live for so many years in the wild without receiving any treatment because their system was built to withstand all these conditions.

The most important thing we should try as much as possible to do is to prevent all these things from happening to us in the first place . That is the most important thing.
There are so many safety measure that has been provided in each countries to preventing contacting any disease or infection.
