Is sepsis contagious to others?

Sepsis is not a contagious disease and cannot be transmitted to others. Sepsis is a syndrome caused by pathogenic bacteria entering the bloodstream. If people around are strong in immunity, they can fully resist these bacteria. However, if there are individuals with poor health or low immunity in the environment, they may be more susceptible to infection, potentially leading to respiratory infections in others. Patients with severe sepsis should also take appropriate isolation measures, such as wearing masks and avoiding spitting casually.
