    My boyfriend was just diagnosed with pneumonia, contagious?
    He wasn't feeling good 2 days before he went to the doctor. I hung out with him those two days. The first day I kissed him but after the second day I didn't kiss him so I wouldn't get sick but we still hung out and were around each other and he was coughing and stuff. I woke up this morning not feeling good. My throat isn't really that sore it just hurts and I can't swallow well. Could I have it?

    It is contagious. His doctor isn't letting him go to work or see anyone for 3 days because of that reason.
