Each prospective urban health characteristic has the ability to influence infectious disease transmission. For starters, population density is unambiguously linked to the possibility of infectious illness; greater density increases the danger of transmission of disease, whether via sexual contact, fecal-oral dissemination, or respiratory spread. As a result, crowded cities may be predicted to have greater rates of infectious illness transmission. Second, accessible health and social resources may have a direct impact on infectious disease morbidity and death. Antiretroviral treatment, for example, has resulted in a substantial decrease in HIV-related mortality in North America. Less radically, widely accessible confidential sexually transmitted disease testing and treatment has the potential to minimize problems and transmission.
