Parasitology & Infectious Diseases

Parasitic infections can be spread in a number of ways. For illustration, protozoa and helminths can be spread through defiled water, food, waste, soil, and blood. Some can be passed through sexual contact. Some freeloaders are spread by insects that act as a vector, or carrier, of the complaint. Medical parasitology traditionally has included the study of three major groups of creatures parasitic protozoa, parasitic helminths (worms), and those arthropods that directly beget complaint or act as vectors of colorful pathogens.

A sponger is a pathogen that contemporaneously injures and derives food from its host. In nature, numerous bloodborne spongers are spread by insects (vectors), so they're also appertained to as vector- borne conditions.
