Urushiol oil, found in plants like poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac, is not contagious after the initial exposure. The oil can remain on surfaces and clothing, potentially causing a reaction if someone comes into contact with it, but it does not remain active on the skin after the rash appears. Typically, once the rash has developed, it cannot spread to others through direct contact. After two weeks, any urushiol oil that may have caused a rash would likely have been washed away or degraded, making it non-contagious.

There does not appear to be a period of time that a cold is least contagious.
