[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can shed RSV for weeks. Can you postpone the meetings?[/quote] No I can’t. I can participate in them virtually but really not ideal. Also, weeks?? [/quote] Sorry, my ped told me weeks but this may be only children and old people. "People infected with RSV are usually contagious for 3 to 8 days and may become contagious a day or two before they start showing signs of illness. However, some infants, and people with weakened immune systems, can continue to spread the virus even after they stop showing symptoms, for as long as 4 weeks" https://www.cdc.gov/rsv/about/transmission.html#:~:text=People%20infected%20with%20RSV%20are,as%20long%20as%204%20weeks.[/quote] Yeah my ped said my otherwise healthy 3yo was good to go back to group care/public settings once her only symptom was the cough. Unless your office has people at seriously high risk for RSV, I would figure you’d be fine next week.[/quote]
