A member asked:

Shared a drink from same glass with a stranger (waitress). is there any chance of getting any disease or illness from this either large or small?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Of course YES is the only way to answer a question like this, because many things are possible in life. The real question is, "Should I worry about it?" That answer is NO, don't worry about it, don't sweat the small stuff. Go out and live life.
