Is Epilepsy Contagious? by brownlolly(m): 8:17am On Sep 05, 2017
This morning I saw a man fall down on the road in front of his shop. I walked to the place and I noticed he was unconscious but he was breathing. People who knew him didn't even bother to go near him.

I kept looking around and wondering what was going on, and it seemed like nobody was ready to help. So I bent down and tapped him to check if he was aware of his surroundings. He opened his eyes. Someone else joined me and we helped him up to his seat.

Afterwards someone came to me and told me the man has WARAPA (Epilepsy) and that it is forbidden to touch an epileptic when he's having seizures as it is contagious

Is this true?

Holy bullshit.

It has to do with the nervous system.

What if the guy had hit his head against the floor and had a concussion or had the seizure in a pool and drowned.

Everyone around should be arrested for being collectively dumb.

It's an offence!

Epilepsy is not contagious, it is a pity how people conclude things. Please I recommend Rain Soul supplement for anyone who is epileptic.

Nigerians tire me. They have herbal solutions to almost everything. Why don't they have herbal solutions to counter looting and corruption?
