Are you living in a fantasy world? who would intentionally infect someone else?

Yes. There are a lot of other ways like Using infected needles, etc.\nYou can find a lot of info at http://www.thebody.com/

Not exactly. there are many other things that can be a fly in the ointment like diseases.

It's highly unlikely, for the simple reason that it's not in the interests of a parasite to kill its host. It's far more beneficial to make the host sick instead, and even better if the host shows no outward signs of infection but continues cranking out parasites.\n\nThe most deadly virus of all time, the 1918 H1N1 flu, is in common circulation today -- in fact, you have probably been infected by it! However, its virulence and deadliness have dropped dramatically so it's no longer an exceptionally lethal virus. This is precisely what is expected.

No- you would not be able to get an infection this way- it would have to be bodily fluids directly from the infected person to the noninfected person.

It isn't very conventient, but carry a little bottle of hand sanitizer with you wherever you go. Germs are more likely to be transmitted by something you touch and then you rubbing your eyes or nose, not necessarily through the air.\n\nWash your hands when you can and sanitize them often and keep taking the Airborne and hopefully you'll make it.\n\nI have a cold right now, but don't worry, I don't think I can transmit it over the web. Achoo!

I think it's possible, but it would take alot of effort on both sides. If that's want you want, good luck! I tried, but I could never really get over it, and he didn't really want to talk about it. I saw him as he was contaminated.

It will make its way trhough all your system, not only to get to your stomach.\nThat's the way this disease is really dangerous, because a person might get infected only by touching another's hands or with a minimun contact with the persons who is the carrier or with the places this person has been before.

NO, UNTILL UNLESS THE MAN IS SUFFERING FRTOM SOME KIND OF INFECTION.

your body is susceptible to infection.

there's a chance that a highly infectious disease with a long enough period of incubation could travel enough via its hosts to kill a lot of people. I don't know if it would be able to kill everyone though, it seems unlikely.

NOPE !!!\n\nIT'S MORE SERIOUS THAN THAT !!!\n\nIT CONSISTS OF MENTAL DISORDERS !!!\n\nAND IT IS SOMETHING YOU CAN NOT INDUCE UPON YOURSELF NOR IS IT CONTAGIOUS !!!

I would report it to the authority's as soon as possible before he gets out and then and also to the disease control center.It is the same as killing someone if it gets out off control. if he gets away with it he will pass it one to someone else. how can someone that does this kind of thing even live with themselves. I sure would persue this and good luck to you and God Bless.

The short and sweet answer is: no.\n\nYou would have to touch the part of the bag that came into contact with the cocaine, and then you would have to injest it somehow (licking your hands, for example.) \n\nThat's like asking if you can contract AIDS from touching someone who is infected with it.

It's highly unlikely that the virus would be spread this way, though I wouldn't say absolutely impossible.\n\nThe virus would have to survive contact with the acidic pinapple and survive on the pinapple for however long it took the boy to eat it. Once in the boy's mouth it would have to remain alive until it can find a way into the blood stream. \n\nThere is ONE documented case of the virus being transmitted via a deep, mouth to mouth kiss. It should be noted that the infector and infectee both has gum disease, and had very recently brushed their teeth, causing bleeding and thus passage ways into the blood stream to open up.\n\nThere are many cases where the path of infection was not dicernable. This isn't to say it occured in a not so unusual way, such as unprotected sex, but people have a tendancy to withhold things from doctors. I think it's unlikely that they would persue investigations as far as suspecting a pinapple vendor, so this is probably an urban legend.\n\nHere is a document citing unusual, but rare, suspected routs of transmission of HIV.

Only if the sweat is infective. And that can be the case. Your eye has a great deal of enzymes to deal with the bugs it runs into on a daily basis, but it is possible for, say, a fungal infection from one person to get transfered to another by way of spores in sweat. It would be unlikely, but possible.

The basic answer to this is No because there are various strains of the virus and thus each person could be reinfecting each other and thus make the other person sicker than they really should be.
