HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I could say that typhoid is not the contagious disease but this is water born disease if you are suffering from the typhoid then no body would get this infection when coming near to you or when touching to you, hope this information helps you, have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
