bacterial pnumonia is contagious and is cuminicable between snakes and humans for that matter between any living things humans, mamals. viruses need ,like said earilier, they need specific dna to work. i am no way an expert but was told this by a vet at cornell univiserity. some colds by the way are also bacterial. hope this helps. as for quarntine there doesnt seem to be too much you can do except for maybee keep them in a seperate room and just check on them from afar if you could and maybee have someone else water or feed them for you.
