The infected animals do not show symptoms. The person in direct contact is the only one infected. Humans do not become sick from animal diseases. The diseases are treatable with antibiotics.
I gave my students this multiple choice question: Why are diseases transmitted through the bites of infected animals not considered contagious diseases?

Only one answer is correct among these 4 choices:
- The infected animals do not show symptoms.
- The person in direct contact is the only one infected.
- Humans do not become sick from animal diseases.
- The diseases are treatable with antibiotics.

Could you tell me which one is correct?

The person in direct contact is the only one infected.
