    Survivors are not yet contagious if they are in the first stage of infection. A healthy teammate can unhook them without contracting the disease themselves. A survivor in the first stage of sickness also will not infect objects they touch.

    This only applies when they are in second stage and broken, then any interaction between them and an object or teammate will spread the disease.

    In your video, the Kate unhooks herself with Deliverance at 14:28. This causes the Broken status effect, which is not from the Plague. You can see that it goes away after a bit.
