3. Can Systemic Lupus Be Contagious?
While medical professionals may not know exactly why people get systemic lupus, they are certain that it is not a contagious disease and cannot be spread from person to person. The causes of this health issue are more likely the result of specific factors existing in a person’s environment that may trigger a predisposition they have for the disease.
One thing at-risk person’s should be mindful of is the potential of genetics to play a role in how likely someone is to develop systemic lupus. If you have a lot of direct family members with the disease you may want to use extra caution and watch for the signs of it showing up in your body.
