Microbial Transmission

Can they really be controlled… Or nah?!
● With the topic of the spread of microbes being so prevalent today, it seems right to
discuss the what, how & why of microbial transmission. How is it that we can pick
up a "disease" so quickly and (at times) can't trace back to where it even started?
What is the difference between an Outbreak, Epidemic & Pandemic? What are we
doing to help control the fast-paced movement of microorganisms across the globe?
Is there a Microbe that can potentially infect majority of all humans that can and/or
will place even us on the endangered list? How major is our impact on the spread of
these microbes that can potentially wipe us out?
● These are all things that can be addressed when thinking about the transmission of
microbes within our own bodies, homes, communities, cities, states, countries,
continents, globe, universe, etc… What are the strengths and weaknesses of our
current health care systems in the fight against the new age microbe of today?
● In this Forum, you are to discuss your stance on human impact on Disease Transmissions
of Microbes. What do you currently know about how microbes are transmitted? What role
do you personally play in spreading and/or preventing the spread of microbes? How
cognizant are you when it comes to your daily practices that easily spread microbes?
How often do you wash your hands? Clean your house? How do you control the growth
of microbes around you in order to ultimately prevent the infection and spread of
microorganisms? Any other information you would like to add? Examples? Anecdotes?
