[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here again to report back. First, the real flu isn't a stomach virus or what people think of as stomach flu. It can be accompanied by nausea and vomiitting but that is not typical. In this case the symptoms were a very high fever followed by upper respitory symptoms. The high fever was gone by the time I posted about her coming back to work. We ended up having the nanny stay home for 2 working days paid, but at the point the fever had been gone for 36 hrs we had her come back, even though there were still some lingering symptoms. Before she came back I disinfected as much as I could. She did not get sick. Some of you are over the top as to your expectations. To never have a nanny come to work if your child is ill? Do you include the common cold in that? I am super glad we have our awesome nanny.[/quote] I'm glad it went well. As an aside, some people always have nausea, vomiting and diarrhea with the flu, due to the way their systems deal with the virus. Unfortunately, that's the way it works for me, although I wish it weren't. But, it has yet to stop me from working.[/quote]
