CHARGE Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that affects multiple systems in the body. It is caused by mutations in the CHD7 gene and is characterized by a wide range of symptoms and disabilities. However, it is important to note that CHARGE Syndrome is not contagious.



CHARGE Syndrome is a genetic condition, which means it is inherited from parents who carry the mutated gene. It is not caused by exposure to any infectious agents or by contact with individuals who have the syndrome. Therefore, there is no risk of contracting CHARGE Syndrome through casual contact or close proximity to someone with the condition.



Individuals with CHARGE Syndrome may experience various physical and developmental challenges, including hearing and vision impairments, heart defects, growth delays, and intellectual disabilities. The severity and combination of symptoms can vary widely among affected individuals.



While CHARGE Syndrome itself is not contagious, it is important to provide support and understanding to individuals and families affected by this condition. Awareness and education about CHARGE Syndrome can help promote inclusivity and create a more inclusive society for those living with this rare genetic disorder.
