Wikipedia
Infected
Infected is a song written by Brett Gurewitz from the punk rock group Bad Religion. It was released in 1994 and appears on their eighth proper studio album Stranger Than Fiction. Along with "21st Century (Digital Boy)", "Infected" is considered to be their breakthrough song, as it received airplay from modern rock radio stations. During the 1990s, frontman Greg Graffin used to sing "don't be mad about it, Bobby", referring to then-drummer Bobby Schayer, instead of "don't be mad about it, baby".

Examples of infected in a Sentence

We know that 40 %, maybe even higher, of cases are asymptomatic, meaning they don't have a fever. So, you might catch a few people, but not the vast majority of infected people, handing out masks is good, but better would be requiring masks and modeling behavior of wearing masks. And given that mask wearing has become a political statement, I think there will be social pressure not to wear a mask.
