This can happen through sharing needles or other drug paraphernalia, or when coming into contact with an open wound or mucous membrane of an HIV-positive person. Indirect transmission can also occur when an HIV-positive person transmits the virus to another person through breastfeeding or contact with infected blood in the birth canal.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-145462 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/infinitylearn.com\/surge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/modes-of-transmission-of-diseases.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"606\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/infinitylearn.com\/surge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/modes-of-transmission-of-diseases.jpg?v=1647721514 606w, https:\/\/infinitylearn.com\/surge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/modes-of-transmission-of-diseases-300x212.jpg?v=1647721514 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 606px) 100vw, 606px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Direct_Transmission\"><\/span>Direct Transmission<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Direct transmission is a term used in epidemiology to describe the spread of a pathogen from one person to another without an intermediate host. This can be through contact with an infected person, such as through coughing and sneezing, or contact with infected body fluids.

This can occur through contact with contaminated surfaces, objects, or people. Indirect transmission is often responsible for the spread of infections in healthcare settings, as pathogens can be easily transferred from one individual to another.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introduction of Direct and Indirect Transmission of HIV There are two ways that HIV can be spread: direct and indirect.
