Dr. Alvin Lin answered

Communicable disease: By definition, communicable diseases require communication or contact between human beings for transmission. Classic examples are influenza & sexually transmitted diseases/infections. So are ship-board diarrheal illnesses. But cellulitis or skin/tissue infection isn't considered communicable. There's also interspecies transmission such as bird flu & rabies which are communicable from animal to hum
