Bla bla bla. What if you come into contact with an asymptomatic person’s blood, feces, urine, semen? I call bullshit on this “need to show symptoms” to be contagious.

As they were engaged, I would suppose there was close, personal contact.

What a damn shame. Prayers up for this guy.

Very little virus load present until they start to show symptoms. Quite simply, that's why they aren't sick yet. Even at the peak of symptoms a fluid may not show virus in a particular patient (e.g. saliva). There have been a few documented cases of transmission pre-symptoms but not many.

At least it isn’t airborne. People need to quit licking faces and having sex with folks with Obola.

The definition of "contact" needs to be modified when the contactee is one's fiance.

The correct answer is “probably” or “ unlikely” to be infectious.
In general anyone who says “always”-or “never” in medicine iscan idiot....
