Make you cough as well? Over a prolonged period of time let's say, does seeing another person who is constantly coughing eventually make you start coughing as well? Not as consistently, but occasionally?

No, but seeing someone yawn gets me every time.

And hearing someone speak with blocked sinuses gets me feeling bunged up too.

Yeah, pretty much. I havne't heard about infectious coughing, but infectious yawning is definitely something I've experienced first hand.

Only if they were coughing directly on me, and I caught their cold or flu.

I'm hyper-sensitive to yawnitis. just reading these two mentions of yawning actually made me yawn....

Not in the least. It does, however, make me want to leave the room.

No, but that happens with yawning. Even someone yawning while they're on the phone makes me yawn.

I don't even have to see the yawn for it to be infectious- I yawned after reading that.

I wonder how many peopl actually yawned when reading about the yawning in this thread. I've yawned a couple times already, but to my defence I'm really tired and should probably go to sleep.
