Yes, thrush, which is a fungal infection caused by Candida, can spread to others, particularly through direct contact. It is more commonly spread in situations involving intimate contact, such as sexual activity, or through shared items like utensils or toothbrushes. However, it is not classified as a sexually transmitted infection. Those with weakened immune systems or other risk factors are more susceptible to contracting thrush.
