Can someone pass on mumps without having it themselves?
Only maybe, and not in the sense of being a carrier:They can pass it on to others before they have symptoms or know they have it, when they first get the flu.Some people have had very mild symptoms and didn't realize they had the flu, but that is not at all typical with swine flu.People could have the virus on their hands and spread the virus to someone else from their touch, but avoid getting it themselves because they were vaccinated or already had it before and are now immune.It is possible as well, although unlikely, that they could have the virus on their hands, touch someone else or something that someone else then touches and give the virus to them, and then before they touched their own eyes, mouth, nose or face they washed their hands and did not actually get the virus infection themselves.
Can you be a carrier If you never had chickenpox?
When people speak of a "carrier" of an infectious disease, they normally are referring to someone who is carrying the germ, can infect others, but has no symptoms. The period between getting the virus and getting symptoms is called the "incubation period" of an infection. The incubation period of chickenpox is 10-21 days, but is typically about two weeks. However, chickenpox is a virus in the herpes family that goes into remission after the patient recovers from chickenpox. The virus stays in your body. It is the same virus that causes shingles in some in later years. However, in this period of remission, the patient is not contagious and isn't, technically, a "carrier."
