Is it possible to cure schizophrenia permanently?
Schizophrenia can go into permanent remission, although that is not the same as curing it. When it does, it is rarely caused by medical intervention and usually by the natural course of the disease.
How does Schizophrenia reproduce?
Schizophrenia is not caused by a virus or bacteria--it does not and cannot "reproduce". Because it is not caused by a virus or bacteria, it is also not "contagious".

No it cannot because it is not caused by an infection.
Is the karyotype of a person with schizophrenia normal or abnormal?
The majority of people with schizophrenia have normal karyotypes. If the karyotype is abnormal, it will be a coincidence and not the cause of the schizophrenia.

Can schizophrenia be spread?
Schizophrenia or any mental health issue is not spread or contagious.
