(Prevalent) disease
Answer: D
A prevalent disease is a widespread one.
Prevalent means widely existing or common at a particular time or place; the prevalence of a disease is the proportion of a population that has it. So a prevalent disease is one found widely.
Contagious describes how a disease spreads (by contact), not how common it is, and a contagious disease may be rare. Dangerous and fatal describe how serious a disease is, which has nothing to do with how widely it occurs.
