Can I Absorb Drugs Through My Skin And Have The Affects?

I am an exotic dancer as you know my job requires that I come into close contact with others, I was wondering if one of those individuals was on illegal drugs, ecstasy, cocaine, etc. can I absorb their sweat through my skin and have the affects? Same for touch or saliva?

Hi,

No, drugs cannot be transferred from person to person through touch, saliva or any kind of physical intimacy. Drugs cannot also be absorbed through sweat. Please do not worry.

Best wishes.
