Question
Can hand, foot, and mouth disease be transmitted?
Answer
Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is highly contagious and primarily spreads through the digestive and respiratory tracts, as well as contact. It can infect not only children but also adults, including pregnant women. Although pregnant women have stronger immunity, they still have a risk of contracting HFMD. It is advisable to enhance immunity through physical exercise, maintaining health, and personal hygiene, and to avoid close contact with patients to prevent infection.
