# /diseases/{disease_code}/general

GET https://api.gideononline.com/diseases/10020/general

Retrieves the following general info on a disease:

- Agent: Classification (e.g., virus, parasite) and taxonomic designation.
- Reservoir: Any animal, arthropod, plant, soil or substance in which an infectious agent normally lives and multiplies, on which it depends primarily for survival, and where it reproduces itself in such a manner that it can be transmitted to a susceptible host.
- Vector: An arthropod or other living carrier which transports an infectious agent from an infected organism or reservoir to a susceptible individual or immediate surroundings.
- Vehicle: The mode of transmission for an infectious agent. This generally implies a passive and inanimate (i.e., non-vector) mode.
- Incubation Period: The time elapsed between acquisition of an infectious agent and onset of signs or symptoms. The maximum and minimum published figures are generally indicated, rather than the “usual” incubation period.
- Clinical Hints: A capsule summary of key signs and symptoms.
- Diagnostic Tests: Commonly used laboratory tests and other procedures used in diagnosis.
- Typical Adult Therapy: Typical therapy and dosage assuming no contraindications, normal renal and hepatic function, etc.
- Typical Pediatric Therapy: Typical therapy and dosage assuming no contraindications, normal renal and hepatic function, etc. Note: This regimen may not be applicable to infants.
- Synonym list: Displays synonyms for the listed disease, including ICD9 and ICD10 codes.
