Direct contact:

  • Coming into contact with an infected person's blood
  • Touching an infected person

Indirect contact:

  • Coughing or sneezing, which sends germs into the air that can be inhaled by or come into contact with others, making them sick
  • These germs can also linger on surfaces like tables and doorknobs

Answer:

The diseases which spread through direct contacts are influenza and anthrax.

The example of two diseases which spread by indirect contact are Malaria and measles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The diseases are of two types they are communicable and other is non communicable disease. Non communicable disease can happened due to deficiency of any nutrient or vitamin to a person. The communicable disease can spread from one person to another person.

There are two types of communicable disease they are direct contact disease and indirect contact disease. The communicable disease is more dangerous as compared to non-communicable disease. Communicable disease can spread quickly and to an area and kill many people.
