Can blisters from poison ivy present on an individual be spread to another individual if the oils have not been present for some time?
NOT TOO MANY YEARS AGO, doctors as well as the public in general believed that poison ivy could be spread from oozing sores on the skin caused by poison ivy., we now KNOW that this is NOT true. The only way for poison ivy to spread is from the ORIGIONAL oils from the ivy plant that remains on the skin or the clothing. Once the oils are cleaned away from the skin or clothing, the only way to spread poison ivy is to come in contact with fresh oil from the plant.

No, poison ivy cannot be spread from person to person.The rash that appears after being exposed to poison ivy is your body trying to fight off the oils that are deep inside your skin. No oils will be on the rashes nor when oozing begins will it be able to spread from person to person.The only possible way is if the person got poison ivy on a pare of clothing, and didn't wash them. Then another person took that pare of clothing and wore it.Poison ivy oils can get on every thing from tools to clothing even animals and can stay on them for a year or more. So make sure you wash anything that you think has come in contact with poison ivy.
