Hi guys i am really stressed out because i have a very bad health mouth because of tonsils and also oral thrush (white patches) on back of the mouth, if i try someone else's drink with that kind of health but he/she has no herpes, could i get the disease? No kissing just sharing drinks.. Thank you

No, sharing drinks you dont need to test for any diseases.

Hi, our saliva is the bodies first line of defence as it contains digestive enzimes that are a hostile enviornment for bacteria. However do be careful when someone has the flu or common cold as that maybe your most risky issue.
