Eating with jaundice patients will not be contagious.
Jastritis is a symptom, usually caused by abnormal bilirubin metabolism or elevated bilirubin. It is common in many diseases, such as liver disease, biliary obstruction, hemolytic anemia, etc. The disease itself is not infectious and will not be transmitted through air, saliva, etc. Therefore, jaundice patients will not be infected by eating with others.
For safety reasons, if jaundice symptoms occur, it is recommended to go to the gastroenterology department of the hospital for diagnosis and treatment, and follow the doctor's recommendations for appropriate isolation and protective measures.
