[quote=Anonymous] You generally don't start to feel sick until 7-14 days after the exposure. It takes another 3-5 days for the rash to appear, starting at the top of the head and travelling down the upper body. It takes longer to identify the breakout. If, say, 5 people were initially infected, and some had mild symptoms only (because of some partial immunity), there is another 7-14 days of latency, and another 3-5 days before the telltale rash (if identified). We just don't know yet. Unfortunately, people shed the virus for 3-4 days before symptoms appear, as it is replicating up.[/quote]
