Summary Introduction
The microbes that cause disease to the host are termed to be pathogens. The factors that determine the host-pathogen interactions are a number of organisms infecting the host, virulence factor, and host defense. Moreover, the pathogens should be placed is source and reservoir to distinguish the residence of the pathogens.
