Infectious diseases have their greatest effect on growth and development during the childhood and adolescent life phase. This is because the body is still continuously growing and adapting the internal and external environment that it is exposed to. The body is still processing or having a hard time to regulate the many chemical reactions that are undergoing in it that's why it may be prone to such infectious diseases.
