Paul may have contaminated himself when he was sleeping with Karen and dipped his fingers in one of her sores. Since there are other ways that disease can be spread, e.g., by bodily contact, by transmission of body fluids (blood, semen, saliva, etc.), or by becoming airborne, viewers have suggested several other ways the infection could have been passed.
