Vector-Borne

This dimension groups medical conditions by how they are actually transmitted, airborne, waterborne, bloodborne or by contact. Wikipedia notes that some conditions are "caused by external factors such as pathogens," pathogens that spread from person to person by one particular route. Browsing by transmission route keeps conditions spread the same way grouped together.
