Yuck! I thought it was a baby- pre-k disease?!



I teach kindergarten and sadly, their hygiene skills leave a lot to be desired.


Every elementary school classroom should have a bank of sinks for handwashing in the classroom. Or at least a bank of them in the hallway somewhere so kids can wash before lunch. We don't have the kids wash their hands often enough in school.


My kid’s summer camp had a wall of them outside the cafeteria. Great idea. We have one working sink in each bathroom downstairs. That’s it.

There are 7 strains of the virus, so possible to get more than once. My middle kid has had it twice- thankfully the second time wasn’t so bad.


There are far more than 7 strains. Close to 100 strains.
