Notes
There should be a skull and crossbones here, alerting you to the infectiousness of this Radical Note! After all, this radical appears in sickness-related kanji such as 病 (381: illness) and 症 (1397: symptom). But not all characters with this radical are germ-infested. Take for instance 痛 (943: pain; thoroughly) and 疲 (1728: tired).
