A member asked:
Can you get a disease if someone spits in your hair accidentally it wasnt a lot i just wiped it off with my hand in then wiped it on my shirt i havent washed my hair because it wasnt a lot of spit?

Exposure to other persons' saliva usually transmits no infection. The main risks are for colds, flu, COVID, and other respiratory viruses, and require direct contact of saliva with eyes or mouth. Getting saliva in hair could carry small risk, if you touch the saliva and then immediately your mouth, eyes, etc. So any risk is very low, and will be zero once your hair and shirt have been washed.
