   What is a carrier state in microbiology?

   • Karsner and Ecker described this adaptation as involving changes to both host and microbe, such that the host suffered no damage and the microbe was resistant to the immune system ( 25 ). Similarly, Park and Williams described the carrier state as a commensal development by the pathogenic microorganism ( 36 ).

   What is the difference between a carrier and a passive carrier?

   • An individual capable of transmitting a pathogen without displaying symptoms is referred to as a carrier. A passive carrier is contaminated with the pathogen and can mechanically transmit it to another host; however, a passive carrier is not infected.

   Is carrier state a pathogen centered view of microbial pathogenesis?

   • Although the concept of the carrier state may have undermined the pathogen-centered view of microbial pathogenesis, it invoked a mutability that paved the way for defining host-microbe interaction as a regulated relationship.

   Epidemiology is the study of the determinants, occurrence, and distribution of health and disease in a defined population. Infection is the replication of organisms in host tissue, which may cause disease. A carrier is an individual with no overt disease who harbors infectious organisms.
