Let's first define chain.
Have you ever seen a chain?

chain of infection.
I have here set of terms, phrases and

Why did you come up to that answer?
Excellent. Pathogen can be transferred
through direct and indirect

If we say direct transmission, disease is
transferred through close contact. Will
you give an example.
Coughing, sneezing and even urinating
and pooping.
It is the method by which the organism
moves from one host to another.
Mode of transmission

clues for the chain of infection.
Everyone please read the story.
Did everyone understand the story?
Bring out one whole sheet of paper.
Write there the elements of chain of
infection of the story.
V. Assignment
List 5 communicable diseases
Pathogen, reservoir, portal of exit,
mode of transmission, portal of entry
and susceptible host.
It is very important to prevent any
infections and diseases.
Peter joined he school fun run; his
desire is to win so he didn't mind if he
was stepping on the water wherein his
feet got soaked. Even if this made his
feet very itchy, he didn't do anything

went to sleep and because he was so
tired. Early that morning, his brother
John saw the dried pair of socks and
used it thinking it was clean.
