[quote=Anonymous]The issue of whether mom should have come home is more about what your sick child policy is than about HFM specifically--it is true that by the time the rash is there, you've already been exposed, and it lingers in stool for weeks afterwards too. But agreed that parents should care for kids when they are sick, whatever the illness--just depends on what your arrangement is about this. FWIW, HFM is caused by the Coxsackie virus, not by the same virus that causes chickenpox. Past exposure to different strains of Coxsackie helps with immunity/resistance to new strains, but whether or not you had chickenpox has absolutely nothing to do with it.[/quote]
