How contagious are throat infections generally?

I've had two separate viruses (not covid) over the past 4-6 weeks which totally wiped me out for over a week at a time, stress incontinence the lot Blush I'm pregnant so my immune system is rubbish.

On Tuesday (I was the picture of health by then!) me and DH went for dinner with our friend who then spent several hours at our house afterwards.

Today he text to say he thinks he has a throat infection and can't swallow. He feels awful. I asked when that began and he said yesterday.

What are the chances of him being infectious on Tuesday and me now getting ill again, I don't mean to sound dramatic but I can't bare the thought of spending any more time ill whilst running around after 2 toddlers nor can I afford to have any more time off work.
