My BB is contagious?

[DanielPine]

Hi, I went hiking with my school a few days ago. I was sitting by the camp fire and one of my school mates asked me to take a pee with him. I thought this was kinda weird. Then when we walked a distance from the campsite he pulled out a pipe and some weed and asked me if i wanted some. Being the idiot I am, I smoked it and so did he. A little while later I could smell fecal BB on his breath which I never did before. My BB is contagious. What does this mean. I HAVE to find a cure now, not only for me, but for the guy I infected

Nah bb isn't contagious. Don't worry. I believe what you are smelling in your breath. You were smoking, and when you spoke, the odour instead of fading away, lingered there because of all the smoke, so you smelt your own breath. It happens when you are in a stuffy room, when you speak the odor just lingers, and you assume its the other person, because when they speak they sorta blow the smell back at you. Talk to him again and see if he has bb.

I think there is some possibility that there could be a form of BB that is contageous. Maybe its a virus that's reponsible.

Helicobacter can be contracted from another person through sharing eating utensils, so anything is possible.

There's probably a more simpler explanation though. You've been avoiding getting too close to your friends because of your own BB, so maybe on this occasion you got close enough to smell your friend's breath and it just happens to stink - which isnt that unusual on camping trips where people dont tend to brush their teeth.

I definately believe the bad breath germs can be passed to another person

I thought h.pylori would die after being hit by oxygen, but Im not sure
