Hello and welcome to HCM
You are recovering from typhoid. Typhoid is caused due to infection with Salmonella typhi bacteria. It is not a sexually transmitted disease neither it is a contagious disease. It happens due to contamination of food or water by the bacteria. So both kissing and sex are safe activities.
Take care and keep healthy
