[quote=Anonymous]There are basically two schools of thought on this. One is that she has to be 24 hours fever free and the blisters all have to all be scabbed over, which usually takes a fairly long time (7 days-ish). We just had this go through my house and that was what urgent care said until the kids could go back to camp. The other is fever free, feeling well, and blisters are getting worse not better. That generally faster, just a couple days. The bottom line is that, like most viruses, you’re most contagious at the beginning, and then it gets less and less, and it’s hard to draw a firm line on when the risk is small enough to interact with people.
