This isn't actually true.

Stomach bugs are passed via particles of vomit or diarrhea. If the child picked it up at school, then there's no reason any virus germs would have been in the home.

That said, once the first child puked at home, all bets are off.

And for the record, unless every single surface of the home had been cleaned with a diluted bleach mixture, you could have been exposed to the bug for days after people stopped puking.

Last I knew, germs for stomach bugs were also resent in saliva (to a lesser degree) and fecal matter. Given that nannies change diapers or help kids wipe and young children have saliva EVERYWHERE, exposure doesn’t normally start at the first vomiting.

Also, many young children react to flu with vomiting as one of the symptoms. In that case, exposure is long before vomiting starts.

NP here. So you’re exposed with the first vomit. Too late after that.
