Coxsackie question
I know that once you have coxsackie you aren't immune but, I was wondering if kids can pass it back and forth?
I believe DS 2 has it now (he has a fever and the majority of his class at daycare had/has it). If DS 1 gets it this weekend, can he pass it back to DS 2?
If we are sick this weekend, we will definitely stay at home but, I want to make sure I'm not putting DS 2 at risk of catching it again if I set up the kiddie pool in the yard since it seems to pass quickly in pools.
We've only had it once - and I only had DS 1 at the time so I have never had to deal with this!
TIA!

Re: Coxsackie question
our Ped told us that there are MANY many many strains of the virus. Your child will not get the exact same strain but CAN get it again (different strain) so its unlikely they would pass the same strain back and forth.

Thanks!
Coxsackie (or the threat of coxsackie) is my least favorite thing about summer.
