Depends on how strong the infection is!. It spreads through airbourne droplet e!.g!. sneezing, so even if you take anti-biotics, you might have sneezed into you hand a couple of days a go before you opened a door!. So the virus could be spreading out around you depending on hygiene habits!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

They say if you've been taking the antibiotics correctly for 24 hours you are no longer contagious!. But is there proof to this!? I don't know!. I wouldn't go around tongue kissing anyone until you've finished your course of antibiotics!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
