Communicable diseases are illnesses that spread from one person to another or from an animal to a person, or from a surface or a food. Diseases can be transmitted during air travel through: direct contact with a sick person, respiratory droplet spread from a sick person sneezing or coughing.

Amador County Public Health plays a crucial role in the community sharing education, prevention, investigation, surveillance and monitoring, immunizations, and collaboration with Healthcare partners and community groups.
