[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 310633, member: 1967"] everywoman, Swine flu is rampant at my school. My students are going down like flies. The good news is that it seems to be relatively short lived for the flu. Many are back to school within 4 days. It's amazing because you can almost see it hit them. They seem fine and then all of a sudden tell me that they don't feel well. I sign their pass to the clinic and then immediately disinfect my hands. LOL. One boy came back from the clinic and said that he didn't have a temperature so they sent him back to class. That night, I got an email from his mom that said he had a 103 fever and he was out for the next three or four days. I haven't caught it yet (there seems to be some immunity for those of us of a certain age) but it is keeping me from visiting my brother who had a heart transplant in August. The doctor said that he couldn't be around anyone who had been exposed to the flu, chicken pox, respiratory infections, etc. within the last two weeks even if they themselves were not sick. Living in what seems to be the swine flu capital of the world meant that I couldn't make a planned trip down to visit him this weekend. Hopefully yours will run its course quickly! The good news is that you can't catch it again. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
