Best Answer

Helicobacter pylori is relatively easily spread by a person to person contact.

Asian custom of using the same dipping bowl for the chop stick is a proven way to hand it around the family. Kissing also can spread it, and it is possible to contract it from water, food (due unhygienic food preparations, handling etc).

It is even suggested by some expert, that you can get introduced to it from a

wide range of animal hosts.
