"The was something hideous – the word is used advisedly – about the Hillary Show on Sunday" Yup; the news coverage. Most pneumonia isn't contagious. I never wore a mask treating those patients, and neither did the other therapists, nurses,. and physicians.. 2. Pneumonia is contagious, but not like you think.Most cases of pneumonia are contagious, but it’s not common for people with pneumonia to give it to other people. Instead, the initial bacterial, viral or fungal infection may be passed from one person to another, causing some people to go on to develop pneumonia. And within 24 to 48 hours of treatment with antibiotics or another appropriate medicine, a person’s risk for passing the initial infection on to others goes down greatly or is even eliminated, according to Dr. David Beuther, a pulmonologist at National Jewish Health hospital in Denver. “If someone takes antibiotics, they’re perfectly fine to be walking around in the community in a day or two,” he said. “People diagnosed with walking pneumonia might not even be infectious.” Walking pneumonia, caused by the bacterial microorganism Mycoplasma pneumoniae, is so mild that can present as a cold. If someone decides to finally see a doctor about it, the contagious period may be long past. huffingtonpost.com
