Infection: Results when a pathogen invades and begins growing within the host. Disease: Results only if and when normal tissue function is impaired. The body has defense mechanisms to prevent infection (i.e. burns, skin lesions). Dr. . Urfi. ?. COVID-19. Zika. AIDS . Avian Influenza. Ebola. Marburg . Cholera. Rift Valley Fever. Typhoid.
