Hi,
Klebsiella pneumoniae is contagious and can spread to your husband, but not dangerous. The air borne transmission is usually not seen, the catheter and ventilator equipment in hospital are major sources of transmission.
It will be cured completely and following are the precautions to follow:
@ Continue your medications as per advise of your doc.
@ Both of you should maintain hand hygiene practice to its best.
@ Consume balanced, nutritious diet to recover faster.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
