hi;
tell your room mate to get himself treated.It could be ringworm infection ;don't share any clothes ;towel with him .If he get cured after treatment then its ok but still never share clothings as infection is bound to get transferred.As for multiple sex partners advise him to get checked for HIV.
thanks
