[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] If YOU have a cold, do YOU stay home with your kid the whole time? If you leave the house with your kid you are exposing others, no?[/quote] Well, duh. I can't leave the kid at home alone. The kid is staying at home because he's feeling not well and has runny nose and cough, he needs to drink liquids and rest and needs access to large amounts of Kleenex.[/quote] But - gasp - you are exposing people to your germs. Unless you are using a tissue each time, the germs are shared: http://abcnews.go.com/WNT/video/best-sneeze-22258478 And even then, the tissue and your hand are contaminated. Think: door handles, grocery carts, pens signing at the grocery store, elevator buttons, buttons at a soda machine, tongs, etc. [/quote]
