Typhoid does not spread from one person to other by staying together. It spreads by specific route. That is by faeco-oral route and so the spread can easily be prevented.

Typhoid fever does not spread, if proper precautions in sanitation and personal hygiene is taken. Typhoid fever has been managed in general wards for years without cross infection.
