Giải thích
The chain of infection consists of the infectious agent, a reservoir, a portal of exit, a mode of transmission, a portal of entry, and a susceptible host; breaking any single link stops disease transmission. Sterilizers and PPE are tools used to break links, not links themselves. Listing categories of microorganisms names only one link, the infectious agent.
