Most certainly not! Where did you hear that?!
Color-blindness is a genetic trait that is carried on the X chromosome. It is purely hereditary.

It's mostly a trait you're born (hereditary)with but can also be a result from a disease or ageing.

uh...no. My dad is color blind. No one else in our family is color blind. We didn't "catch" it or inherit it. Neither my siblings nor I are color blind.
