A member asked:
Dr said i have upper respiratory infection, how long is that contagious for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: That depends on the infection and what virus/bacteria is causing it. Generally, use proper hygiene and never forget that proper hand washing is the number one means for preventing the spread of infection.
