A member asked:
Can upper respiratory infection be contagious?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Because respiratory infections can be caused by viruses or bacteria they can be contagious. Good handwashing techniques and sneezing "into your sleeve" are ways to help spread infectious particles to other patients.
