They aren't. Hiccups are an unsynchronisation of the nerves controlling the diaphragm, which means that different areas are moving in different directions or at different times. They cannot be passed on because they are not caused by a pathogen or environmental effect. You may be confused with yawns, as they can be "picked up" from others.
