    Does being exposed mean one is infected?

    Dr. Himabindu Sreenivasulu

    MBBS · 1 years of exp

    Exposure to a disease or pathogen does not necessarily mean one is infected. Exposure means coming into contact with the potential source of infection, but whether infection occurs depends on factors like the pathogen's virulence, the duration and intensity of exposure, and an individual's immune response. Not all exposures lead to infection, and preventive measures like vaccination, hygiene practices, and immune health maintenance can reduce the risk of infection even after exposure to pathogens.
