__How were some dangerous diseases contracted in ancient Rome?__

Malaria was contracted via mosquitoes which there was a lot of them in ancient rome. Tuberculosis was cought from inhaleing droplets ﻿from the cough of someone infected by this disease. Typhoid fever spreaded through contaminated food which was eaten and spread then the process repeats.Gastroenteritis was also spread through contaminated food and drink so it will repeat.

Today a lot of diseases are transmitted via food, drink and hands when they are not washed probaly. But most of the colds and stuff like that are usally passed around in the winter.
