Can a respiratory infection be contracted through oral sex?

Oral sex to blame?: I would doubt it. That is the simple answer, but i suspect there is more to this question. Was kissing involved? Was there any trauma to your airway or theirs? Were either of you sick prior to the sexual encounter? Was there an exchange of body fluids? Now, a throat infection or an oral infection from gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, or syphilis is known to occur during sexual activity.
