TSM, however, for the average person, having symptoms of the cold means they have the cold. It is a matter of definition. By the way, taking an antihistamine help my cold water induced congestion... probably meaning that it is mast cell/histamine mediated.
Now, to be a devils advocate, you really question about viruses which cause the "cold", on whether they can survive in a breathing regulator long enough to infect a second person a day or two later?
