For example, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVp6j5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">TrenchFever</a> belongs in this collection, but <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQww_JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ViralInfection</a>, which is an instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwP1fRZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">InfectionType</a> but is not a type of disease, does not belong.

The predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> is used by the code which generates CycL to English paraphrases, but its applicability is not restricted to this use. prettyString A collection of infections. Instances of this collection are types of infections that are commonly spread by vector organisms. Vectors are carrier of the pathogen, Anopheles mosquitoes carrying malaria bacterium, or carriers of carrier of pathogen, rats carrying fleas carrying the plague bacterium are examples. Thus infections such as malaria, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwP1H1JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Malaria</a>, and plague, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvnCbwpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">BubonicPlague</a>, are instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rv3ir_JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">VectorBorneInfectionType</a>.
