Answer:

The correct answer will be D) it was easy for diphtheria to pass from person to person.

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually when people are really sick and contagious, they would be forced to quarantine in their homes. The doctors want them to stay away from people to avoid spreading the disease.

Hope you have a wonderful day!
