A person with typhoid fever can transmit the bacteria Salmonella Typhi to others primarily through contaminated food or water. This can occur when an infected individual does not properly wash their hands after using the bathroom and then handles food or drinks that others consume. Additionally, the bacteria can survive in the environment, leading to indirect transmission through contaminated surfaces or objects. It's crucial for individuals with typhoid fever to practice good hygiene to prevent spreading the infection.
