The 6 Deadly Diseases You Can Contact Via Oral Kissing
Kissing Warnings!
As a child I grew up daydreaming and imagining when and how to kiss. It was so much and overwhelming seeing it all in the TVs, cinemas, movies and bill boards etc. I am not talking about even on popular brands labelled on them like cosmetics. Seeing a boy and girl doing it. Like jaming their mouths and doing it openly in public places without the adults being paranoid. Like Oh my God when? I said within me.
Therefore if you’re like me doing it all in my mind and wanting it physically with that girl of yours, you should take a thought before you hangout with your red lips all clustered to hers. So lets get going!
NOTE: However, I have made sure most writing (if not all) are not coming from me but are taken from good resource pages and link to them for further reading. This was done deliberately to tell you all thoughts are not mine but from solid research. Thank you!
1) Meningococcal disease:
Meningococcal disease describes infections caused by the bacterium Neisseria meningitidis (also termed meningococcus).
According to wikipedia--(https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meningococcal_disease):
"...Close contacts are defined as those persons who could have had intimate contact with the patient's oral secretions such as through kissing or sharing of food or drink...
....While meningococcal disease is not as contagious as the common cold (which is spread through casual contact), it can be transmitted through saliva and occasionally through close, prolonged general contact with an infected person...."
2)Certain STDS Eg: Herpes, CMV, Syphilis
Oh yes, some sexual transmitted diseases or infection!
According to Amy @ Planned Parenthood--(www.plannedparenthood.com) ("Can I get an STD from kissing?"):
"Although kissing is considered to be low-risk when compared to intercourse and oral sex, it’s possible for kissing to transmit CMV, herpes, and syphilis. CMV can be present in saliva, and herpes and syphilis can be transmitted through skin-to-skin contact, particularly at times when sores are present".
3) Hepatitis B Virus
Just to let you know hepatitis B Virus causes a serious liver infection.
According to Hepatitis B Foundation (https://www.hepb.org/blog/sexual-health-hepatitis-b/):
"Yes! Spreading hepatitis B through kissing is highly unlikely, however, deep kissing that involves the exchange of large amounts of saliva might result in infection if there are cuts or abrasions in the mouth of the infected person, especially if they have a high viral load."
4) Dental Cavity:
You won't believe it but the cause of cavities is acid from bacteria dissolving the hard tissues of the teeth.
According to Sydney Park Dental:
"Cavities are usually caused by sugar build up that decays teeth. However, studies have shown that cavities can be transmitted through close contact with another person who has poor oral hygiene.
Indeed, studies have found that one person can develop a cavity on their tooth via kissing...This was found by evaluating kissing couples.
The precursors to cavities ride it out on the bacteria contained in saliva. So, when two people are kissing with vigour, they can transmit these harmful bacteria to one another. The same goes for mothers that get too close to their babies – they can spread a tooth cavity to the child.
In fact, infants and children are particularly vulnerable to cavity causing bacteria. In most cases where a child has a cavity, they’ve inherited it from their caregiver. One common way this can happen is when a parent tests the temperature of a child’s food with their mouth."
5) Glandular Fever:
Often called mono or kissing disease, an infection with the Epstein-Barr virus.
Mono (glandular fever) is transmitted by saliva.
According to health direct (https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.healthdirect.gov.au/amp/article/glandular-fever):
"Once you catch EBV, it is believed that the virus remains in your body for life.
The virus can be passed from person to person through the saliva by:
✓kissing
✓coughing and sneezing, which spreads the virus in airborne droplets
sharing utensils and drinking containers."
Others are: (click here for more information):
✓Polio
✓Rubella
