Definition

Whatever definition of 'disease' is being used. It should be given in the article. Alec - U.K. 15:37, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A disease can't be transmitted, it is the pathogen that is transmittable, moreover a pathogen that is transmitted is infectious, thus the definition is wrong and redundant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mahat mar (talkcontribs) 13:09, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
