I hope this helps:

The Black Death of 1348 to 1350
In Medieval England, the Black Death
was to kill 1.5 million people out of an
estimated total of 4 million people
between 1348 and 1350. No medical
knowledge existed in Medieval England
to cope with the disease. After 1350, it
was to strike England another six times
by the end of the century.
Understandably, peasants were terrified
at the news that the Black Death might
be approaching their village or town.
The Black Death is the name given to a
disease called the bubonic plague
which was rampant during the
Fourteenth Century. In fact, the bubonic
plague affected England more than
once in that century but its impact on
English society from 1348 to 1350 was
terrible. No amount of medical
knowledge could help England when
the bubonic plague struck. It was also
to have a major impact on England’s
social structure which lead to the
Peasants Revolt of 1381.
The Black Death was caused by fleas
carried by rats that were very common
in towns and cities. The fleas bit into
their victims literally injecting them
with the disease. Death could be very
quick for the weaker victims.
It symptoms were described in 1348 by
a man called Boccaccio who lived in
Florence, Italy:
"The first signs of the plague were
lumps in the groin or armpits. After
this, livid black spots appeared on
the arms and thighs and other
parts of the body. Few recovered.
Almost all died within three days,
usually without any fever."
Written evidence from the time
indicates that nearly all the victims died
within three days though a small
number did last for four days.
Why did the bubonic plague spread so
quickly?
In towns and cities people lived very
close together and they knew nothing
about contagious diseases. Also the
disposal of bodies was very crude and
helped to spread the disease still
further as those who handled the dead
bodies did not protect themselves in
any way.
The filth that littered streets gave rats
the perfect environment to breed and
increase their number. It is commonly
thought that it was the rats that caused
the disease. This is not true – the fleas
did this. However, it was the rats that
enabled the disease to spread very
quickly and the filth in the streets of our
towns and cities did not help to stop the
spread of the disease.
Lack of medical knowledge meant that
people tried anything to help them
escape the disease. One of the more
extreme was the flagellants. These
people wanted to show their love of God
by whipping themselves, hoping that
God would forgive them their sins and
that they would be spared the Black
Death.

I dnt tink typhoid is contagious frm an infected person. D disease is usually a water borne disease while rabies is normally frm d saliva of an infected dog nd usually tru cut. Ow abt TB,Staph,syphilis,

Feel free to add more pls. My bad i left out some. Thanks

Na only god fit save person, among all this disease the worst among them is AID, I pray no one will experiece it but make we make sure dat we use condum wen ever u won't tu do jigijigi

Inconclusive ! Reason
Cancer , diabetis , sickle cell re more deadly than d dreaded HIV

When you talk of easy transmission , devastation and epidemic proportion you will need to include measles ( which is ravaging parts of Nigeria at the moment with 800 infected children in kano alone as at 3 days ago ) , bacterial meningitis which is deadly & comes in epidemics just before the rains ( that is anytime from now). You also have chicken pox which is usually mild but extremely contagious. Viral conjunctivitis (-Apollo is the common name in Nigeria) is also highly contagious and a very irritating and debilitating illness. Mumps which is caused by a virus related to chicken pox is also easily transmissible.

Where is hepatitis B in your list?

I am surprised the Hepatitis Virus isn't on the list, it is more contagious than the HIV virus and could be really fatal.

5. Rabies
While uncommon in humans today, rabies is still a terrifying disease. With symptoms including foaming at the mouth, new fear of water, hostile delusions and violent hallucinations, the disease directly attacks the central nervous system and the brain. [size=14pt]Spread through saliva[/size], this strange and terrifying disease’s vaccination was developed in 1885. However, rabies still kills approximately 50,000 people a year.

Orikinla: HIV is not an illness.
AIDS is the disease.
HIV Is Not a Communicable Disease.

STD like gonorrhea is more contagious than AIDS.

Disease is an illness or disorder of the body or mind. So disease and illness should mean the same thing.
Non-communicable diseases are diseases that are not caused by germs, bacteria or living organism that can affect the human body.
If you say HIV is a non-communicable disease, then what is the cause?

The OP just dey dia wey waste saliva yammering nonsense...

Bros..
The most contagious disease is actually...

THE COMMON COLD!

Him no even talk of TB or even conjuctivitis aka "APOLLO" sef!!!

Do you know for every child with the polio virus, about 1000 children in that environment are at risk? Unfortunately, Nigeria is one of the 3 countries in the world still battling with this virus. Let's fight against this disease with all we have and kick polio out of our dear country. Shalom

adaobi123: wow i never knew leprosy was contagious

Yes leprosy is contagious but kind of very slow. You can stay in close contact with lepers and may still not get it. Not the same with many other contagious skin conditions.

. Is there any disease that is nt cause by either bacteria,virus germs or parasites? communicable diseases ar those that are contracted when u com in contact wt d infected person.lyk flu,conjuctivitis wc ar aided by dia mode of transmision I.e air and or u mite av toched the person. HIV is an infectious disease because u can't get by jst touching d infected person unless d virus gets into ur body tru body fluid lyk blood,sperm,vagina secretion etc.

I thought poverty is one of the most contagious diseases?


Dont move with poor people lest you are infected and become poor too..!

Non- communicable can be caused by malnutrition, hereditary, chemical fallout, psychological failure of some tissue etc. Such diseases include epilespy, diebetes, crossed eyes, low I.Q, aneamia, cancer etc

This is misinformation!
