Problem: Given the question: Question: "If you want to say it's infectious, but not use that word, what's another way to go about it?"

Thus, a contagious disease is a subset of infectious disease that is especially infective or easily transmitted. Other types of infectious/transmissible/communicable diseases with more specialized routes of infection, such as vector transmission or sexual transmission, are usually not regarded as "contagious", and often do not require medical isolation (sometimes loosely called quarantine) of victims.

However, this soon changed as rail and communication networks came to require a standardization of time unknown in Franklin's day."  Answer:
