Waterborne: Pathogens can be transmitted through contaminated water sources. This is a common method for the spread of diseases like cholera. Foodborne: Contaminated food can be a vehicle for pathogens, leading to outbreaks of food poisoning and other gastrointestinal diseases. Airborne: Although not typically classified under vehicle transmission, airborne particles can act as vehicles, especially in poorly ventilated areas. Fomites: Inanimate objects such as medical equipment, bedding, and clothing can harbor pathogens, leading to indirect transmission.
