I dont have a link talking about this, but I havent looked. I just know what the doctors are telling us about the info they are getting from updates they receive.
I believe you're right, Darlene. My neighbor's doctor told her not to send her son back to school even after his fever broke. To keep him home I guess all next week.

Also, my rheumagologist told me this week that there was really no need for anyone who was born from '57 back to have the swine flu vaccine because there was the Asian Flu in 1957, which people who were born before that time will have an immunity to the Swine Flu because they're basically the same type of flu.
