Q.
Which of the following is the most accurate definition of
infection?
Human Health and Disease
Solution:
Infection is the invasion and multiplication of
microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites
that are not normally present within the body. An infection
may remain localized, or it may spread through the blood
or lymphatic vessels to become systemic. Microorganisms
that live naturally in the body are not considered infections.
For example, bacteria that normally live within the mouth
and intestine are not infections.
