carriers
Those who convey
Carriers is the plural of carrier—a person or thing that transports something.
Shipping carriers move packages; aircraft carriers launch planes; disease carriers transmit pathogens without showing symptoms themselves.
In genetics, carriers have a gene for a condition they don't express but can pass to offspring.
In telecommunications, a carrier is a company providing phone or data service: Which carriers offer coverage in your area?
