Differences between infection and disease

  What is the difference between infection and disease?

      Disease is defined as: 
   An abnormal condition of a part, organ, or system of an organism resulting from various causes, such as infection, inflammation, environmental factors, or genetic defect, and characterized by an identifiable group of signs, symptoms, or both.
  
   Meanwhile,an infection is a specific type of disease in which the cause of illness is the body's reaction to an invading micro-organism.
