Can Radiation Damage Spread in Fallout Shelter?

Actually, radiation stays pretty personal in Fallout Shelter. Each Dweller's radiation levels are their own little problem – unless you let your entire vault run out of water. Then it's a shared problem, but not in a spreading way, more in an 'oops, everyone's thirsty and glowing' way.

Nope, radiation damage doesn't 'spread' in the traditional sense in Fallout Shelter. It directly affects individual Dwellers based on their exposure. If they're out in the Wasteland or in a room with a radiation leak, they'll get zapped with radiation damage. But don't worry, it won't jump from Dweller to Dweller like some radioactive game of tag.

Not at all. It hits individuals based on specific conditions, not like a disease. Think of it more as a personal issue unless you're managing resources poorly.

Radiation, spreading? Nah. It targets Dwellers lacking in rad resistance or those gallivanting in the wasteland without proper gear. Keep your water clean and your medbay stocked, and you'll keep the glow at bay.
