Wikipedia

  1. 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

  1. Mick Bailey:

    Infection of dogs with SARS-CoV-2 has been reported, both asymptomatic and associated with variable levels of disease as in humans, so using dogs deliberately to sniff breath and clothes from potentially infected people seems a bit of a risk to the dogs, let alone their handlers.

  2. William Schaffner:

    Older people may have been infected with cousins of H1N1 years ago, and that gives them residual protection.

  3. Ezekiel Emanuel:

    When you have large numbers of people infected, even if the rate of hospitalizations and deaths are low, that number will go up.

  4. Catherine Troisi:

    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. In this event, the hand sanitizer is good, but I don't think you're going to stop a lot of cases that way. Most of the spread is through the air.

  5. William Schaffner:

    I do think this event in Washington was akin to a superspreading event. It was clearly an event where people were gathered together, and the virus attended and made itself known to a lot of people and infected people.
