It is not contagious. Though sometimes I feel like telling extra smelly people it is, so they will stay away from me!

It is not physically contagious. However, the fear spread by those with MCS may create a Limbic-based neurological sensitivity which becomes self-perpetuating and can in some ways worsen the symptoms in others.

Not in the traditional sense. We are poisoned by the bad habits of society and it's growing to epidemic proportions. This is not encouraging, but I find it hopeful the more people who "catch" it, the more people will become fragrance-free making our lives a little easier.

MCS is not contagious, but people in the same family or living area can have it due to all being exposed simultaneously to an offending substance.

Yes--you can pass toxic chemicals from your body to your unborn and breast feeding children.

Definitely not ! The disease is not carried over by any human or animal (ONLY by the horrible stuff they manufacture)

No. MCS is caused when we are bombarded by toxins in our food, air, water, clothes and personal products we put on and are absorbed through our skin - and our liver can’t keep up with the heavy load we are placing on it.

MCS is not contagious that I'm aware of.
Chemicals are easily transferred between people and people and objects, however; and this is a profound problem.
Oils are carriers of fragrance and other toxic chemicals and cause them to stay a long time in the environment.
A person wearing perfume may sit on your favorite chair and some of that perfume is likely to rub off onto the upholstery. It is very difficult to remove oils.
