What is viral meningitis? And how contagious is it?

0

According to the experts, it is not very contagious. The quote is from the first source. “Is a person with viral meningitis contagious? Enteroviruses, which cause most cases of viral meningitis, are contagious. Fortunately, most people exposed to these viruses experience mild or no symptoms. Most people are exposed to these viruses at some time in their lives, but less than 1 in every 1000 persons infected actually develop meningitis. The viruses that are spread by mosquitoes are rarely spread from person to person (see Arboviral Infections fact sheet).
