A member asked:
Is h pylori stomach infection contagious? can it be passed on by sliva, sneezing etc
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, it is: presumably contagious. Mode of transmission is usually via contaminated water or foods. It can presumably transmitted by saliva, but this is more theoretical.
