different ways of spreading human diseases (viral,bacterial, fungal)-notes?

The most common way disease is spread is by the hands.  Other ways are by coming into contact with contaminated objects and surfaces, and by droplet infection (sneezing, coughing).  Body fluids have already been mentioned.

On the whole, no.  There are blood vessels--so called emissary veins--that can transport bacteria from skin infections through the skull to the meninges, but that is a rarity, that has, unfortunately, been observed.\n\nMuch depends on what the bumps are, frankly.  Many of the bumps on the human scalp are of a non-infectious origin--things like seborrheic dermatitis, for instance, or small keratoses or sebaceous cysts--and unless they get infected, will not send bacteria anywhere.

Yes through vaginal fluids and other fluids.  If I remember correctly the virus cannot live long outside the body, I'm thinking like ten minutes.  I also believe it can be transmitted through breast milk, but i'm not sure.

Examples of common human diseases caused by viruses include the common cold, the flu, chickenpox and cold sores. Serious diseases such as Ebola, AIDS, bird flu and SARS are all also caused by viruses. The relative ability of viruses to cause disease is described in terms of virulence. Other diseases are under investigation as to whether they too have a virus as the causative agent, such as the possible connection between Human Herpesvirus Six (HHV6) and neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis and chronic fatigue syndrome. Recently it was also shown that cervical cancer is partially caused by papillomavirus, representing evidence in humans of a link existing between cancer and an infective agent[4]. There is current controversy over whether the borna virus, previously thought of as causing neurological disease in horses, could be responsible for psychiatric illness in humans[5].\n\nViruses have many different mechanisms by which they produce disease in an organism, which largely depends on the species. Mechanisms at the cellular level primarily include cell lysis, the breaking open and subsequent death of the cell. In multicellular organisms, if enough cells die the whole organism will start to suffer the effects. Although many viruses result in the disruption of healthy homeostasis, resulting in disease, they may also exist relatively harmlessly within an organism. An example would include the ability of the herpes simplex virus, which cause coldsores, to remain in a dormant state within the human body.\n\nhope this helps

They think it began in Africa among animals and spread to the humans who ate those animals.  It is spread through bodily fluids--blood transfusions, sexual intercourse and intravenous drug use are the most common ways it is spread.

Yes you can. It is possible to move the virus from the location of the outbreak to other places on the body by touching the sores. Type 1 and 2 can spread to other places on the body. The eyes, moouth, genitals, and nose are the most senitive places because they are mucus membranes. But you can also get it on your finger tips called HEPATIC WITLOW.

It has been proven over and over again that regular handwashing can result in a healthier lifestyle.\n\nHandwashing Keeps Us Healthy \nHERE'S WHY!\n\nBacteria and viruses that make people sick can be passed on our hands. Handwashing is the most important way to reduce the spread of infection. You can't avoid collecting germs, but you can reduce the chance of infecting others by knowing when to wash.

As chihuahua rightly said, there are exceptions. Other organisms (not mentioned in that wikipedia link) include Mycobacteria Leprae (causes leprosy) as well as Treponema Pallidum (causes syphilis).\n\nAlso, there are modifications done to the original Koch's postulates, now known as the 'Molecular Koch's Postulates'. These involve isolating & modifying specific virulence gene for studies with models of infection.\n\nWhy is it important for the HIV virus to satisfy Koch's postulates, anyway? The postulates are used to establish that a specific micro-organism is the cause of a particular disease. That's all. The guy is obviously not 100% correct with all micro-organisms.

98 % is but there r also air born diseases and viruses that r caught not by touch but from the air.If someone ate in a room with someone who had an airborn virus you would get it.I know this from experience.Hand sanitizer is good to take anywhere especially buses and when handleing money.

bacteria, viruses, cyanobacteria or fungi?  or do you mean specific examples

The key is for certain bodily fluids to be exchanged between two people -- one of whom has HIV.\n\nMajor ways include:\na) Unprotected sex (certain types are riskier than others).  This includes M/M (probably highest risk), F/F and F/M (probably the greatest current source of spread).\nb) Blood transfusions in the early 80s (not now);\nc) IV drug abuse with shared needles;\nd) Accidental exposure of health care workers (needle stick, surgery nick)\ne) HIV positive moms to newborns.\n\nOther ways that are, at least in theory, possible (if very rare or undocumented): \na) contaminated medical instruments (there is thought to be one case in Florida with dental intruments that had not been properly sterilized)\nb) Any other fluid exchange.  For example kissing is thought to be very low risk.  OTOH, if both persons had open wounds inside the mouth...\nc) Blood to blood contact (i.e., boxing).

Yes- there are many std's and diseases that can be transmitted this way, including AIDS

Rabies is transmitted via salvia, blood or other fluids from an infected animal or individual.\n\nRabies in humans is extremely rare.  I have never heard of a case of sexually transmitted rabies...

If mishandled (someone went to the bathroom without washing his hands, then stuck his hands in the syrup) or untreated, it could definitely grow microorganims that can cause illness. However, I'm not aware of a plant disease that could be communicated to humans if that was your question.
