[quote=Anonymous]I took my child to ER for what turned out to be croup and they also tested positive for rsv. Doctor (at a leading pediatric ER) said I could send back to school in 24 if no fever (he did not have a fever at the time). I’m not debating if this is right or wrong - just pointing out it’s the medical guidance being given and what is likely happening for most people. So you can keep your kid home as long as you feel appropriate beyond their being fever free and up for school, but it likely won’t make a difference in the general spread of viruses because other kids are already there spreading it based on medical guidance Before I’m attacked, the rsv got much worse about 24 hours later with a high fever for 2 days so I didn’t end up having to decide whether to send him back 24 hours after an ER visit. Once his fever broke, I waited the 24 hours and sent him back despite the cough which doctors warned me can last for weeks[/quote]
