The right answer is pathogens → exposure → sickness.

An infectious disease is a disease caused by the transmission of a micro-organism or pathogen: virus, bacteria, parasite, fungus, protozoa, after exposure to the latter.

Their mode of transmission is variable and depends on their reservoir (human, animal, environmental) and sometimes vectors (vector diseases).
