[quote=Anonymous]HepA is also a disease that's endemic in come countries, and many afflicted with it are asymptomatic at first, but highly contagious. How is this spread? Oral-fecal contact. PreK-ers learning to use the bathroom and not doing such a great job of washing their hands and then reaching their hand into a shared bag of carrots or pretzels? You've got yourself Patient Zero and a whole class of potential victims. Lucky kids will have been vax'd; the others will suffer 4-6 weeks of fever, nausea, vomiting, weight loss, and yellowing of their skin and eyes, AKA "strengthening their immune systems naturally." Also, those kids will be asymptomatic while infectious. Has this been a problem in preK in DC? Not to my knowledge. Just presenting a very possible scenario for a susceptible age group. Just because it hasn't happened doesn't mean it cannot.[/quote]
