Question 1

can you get gonorrhea or clymidia from drinking after someone who has it or sharing a cigarette?

Accepted Answer

Highly unlikely: You are very unlikely to acquire STDs from sharing glassware or cigarettes, but if you are concerned about transmissible diseases in general, these are not good practices.

Question 2

can you give someone clymidia by sharing cigarettes or kissing?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely: The end of a cigarette is not a favorable site for chlamydia to survive and of course the person in question would have to have an active chlamydia infection of the mouth or lips.  Sounds like a golden opportunity to give up smoking forever.

Question 3

can you get herpes from sharing food?

Accepted Answer

Can happen: Anything that touches an open herpes lesion can transmit herpes to another person.  So the answer is yes, this can happen.

Question 4

can you get herpes from sharing a cigarrette?

Accepted Answer

Its possible: If the other person has a cold sore you could pick up the virus on your mouth or lips.

Question 5

can you get herpes from sharing a cocanie straw?

Accepted Answer

Little or no risk: Almost certainly not. Don't worry about it. But still, you shouldn't be sharing cocaine straws. Herpes isn't an issue, but it's a great way to transmit colds, influenza, etc. Get your own straw! (Or lay off the coke.)

Question 6

what diseases can you get from sharing a drink with somebody?

Accepted Answer

Too many to list: Almost any infectious disease can be transmitted by sharing a drink . Anything from a cold [virus] to a cold sore[ virus] to bacteria like strep pyogenes , ie strep throat.

Question 7

can you get chlymidia shareing drinks with someone who has it ?

Accepted Answer

No: You can only catch chlamydia as a sexually transmitted disease, not from sharing drinks with someone.

Question 8

can you get herpes from sharing food even if the food was not bit out of?

Accepted Answer

Some kinds, yes: genital herpes is spread by sexual contact.  There are many herpes viruses and related viruses that are spread by respiratory (coughing, etc) and produce cold sores and diseases like mononucleosis.  So, if some one has coughed on the food, you would have to eat it.  If they coughed or breathed on you directly, then you might get it.

Question 9

can i get an herpes from using someone's chopstick or sharing food if they haven't broken out yet?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Herpes is a virus that causes cold sores around your mouth.  There is another herpes virus that causes genital infection, but you cannot catch that from Chapstick or eating after them.  You can catch the oral virus by eating or drinking after someone, using their Chapstick, or kissing them.  They are most contagious when they have lesions, but some virus can be present before they break out.

Question 10
