How to use "Disease" in context?
A disease is an abnormal state of the body caused by the interaction of two or more factors. These factors may be external, such as a virus, or internal, such as the presence of a carcinoma. Diseases may also be caused by malfunctioning of the body's normal biochemical processes. Diseases can be acute or chronic, and can affect any part of the body. Diseases can be fatal, debilitating, or symptomatic.
There are many diseases, and it is difficult to determine which one will affect a person.
