Correct Answer: Typhoid


Solution : The correct option is Typhoid.

Typhoid fever is not usually spread by blood transfusion. Typhoid fever is caused by the bacterium Salmonella Typhi and is spread mostly by the consumption of contaminated food or water contaminated with the bacteria. It is not a bloodborne disease and is not typically spread by blood transfusion. Hepatitis B, hepatitis C, HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), and some other bloodborne viruses can be spread by blood transfusion. Malaria can be transmitted by blood transfusion if the given blood includes Plasmodium parasites.
