That basically gives everyone your resistance bonuses only for the purpose of not catching stuff from you. The game mechanic here is potent, but since it's so limited (just contagion spreading from you personally), it's worth a perk.
The Perk is probably very redundant, though: it assumes that the Resistant person failed a Resistance roll.

(Alternatively, one can buy Resistant/Immunity with a -50% Limitation to make it prevent symptoms but not eliminate contagiousness, but IMHO this should not be compatible with said Perk.)
