A member asked:
If a person has chlyamdia in the mouth and she kisses someone and that someone kisses a baby, will the baby get it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likley: Anything is possible, but third person transfer of an organism like chlamydia orally (or only labially) makes it very improbable that this type of transmission will occur.
