Yes. Preventative. That's part of its mechanism of action.

NO
Most papers I've seen have shown it to be more effective at preventing transmission than anything else it is used for. Granted, it's a little difficult to study because you can't guarantee everyone would have the same risk of transmission, but they are placebo controlled so there's some validity to them.
