Airborne

These are diseases that may be spread through the air from the infected person to a healthy person. This may be direct spread, as when a disease carrier coughs near another person, or indirect spread, when the disease organisms spread through the air ducts in a building. Indirect spread can infect workers several floors away from the disease carrier.
