[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Toddler has a mild case of RSV. No fever, acting totally normally with normal energy levels, Dr says lungs sound good. Has a bad cough and a mild runny nose. No wheezing. This is day 6 of symptoms but just tested positive today. Would you send back to daycare in this scenario? No strict daycare policy except fever free 24 hours but DC hasn’t had fever at all. [/quote] No, your child is still contagious and because it’s mild for you doesn’t mean it won’t be for others. I work at a daycare and a couple of years ago we had someone like you bring in their contagious child (unbeknownst to us at the time), it sent one child to the hospital for a week and nearly lost her. A couple of other kids were severely sick, but did not require hospitalization. Since then, our policy is for all symptoms to be resolved.[/quote]
