    I found this tonight...


    When you get to the site scroll down to "Tummy Problems". Dont think I believe this. It says that if you can hold food down you can go to work and not be contagious.

    I dont know if I believe that part about once you vomit you feel better if it was food poisioning ..............

    I still say if people would just stay home when they are sick, this stuff wouldnt hang around and be as bad as it is.

    I read both articles. The first one did not state anything about
    v*** not being contagious (other than in the title of the article and I
    think that was a blanket statement). Basically, the rule of thumb
    is if you can hold food down, you can go to work. I am
    really suspect of that statement. What does that mean?



    So many parents in my kids' school will send their kids to school if
    they hold food down for five hours. What does that mean? I
    think ad 24-48 hour wait is more realistic. Kids are notorious
    for v*** and then doing it again 5-6 hours later.



    The sv is going around rampant now, and this year, because people go
    out into the workplace and school too early. This is
    because employers are completely unsympathetic to the worker.
    People are given accolades if they jeorpardize their health for the
    benefit of the employer. No employee gets a gold watch for taking
    care of themselves.

    Is anyone considering buying the information from that guy? Sounds pretty cool, but who really knows, you know?
