Is lupus contagious?

Patient's question:

The relatives who moved in from next door have lupus. Their skin is covered in red patches, it's so scary. Does lupus be contagious?

Doctor's answer:

No need to worry, lupus is an autoimmune disease that will never spread, so it won't affect your neighborhood harmony. Lupus will only recur on the face and will never recur on other parts of the body, so you also need to ask about the specific reasons for this. You should also remind him to actively follow up with his doctor to avoid developing lupus nephritis.
