    Default Sick Co-workers

    The physio i work for was away last Thursday with a stomach virus, hadn't been in the office since the Tuesday and was back today (Monday). Normally I wouldn't mind so much, but there's only one bathroom at work. She hasn't been sick or anything (as far as I know) and normally I would wait until I got home but I won't get home until 9pm tonight and I was busting! I washed my hands, didn't touch anything but I'm still paranoid. I'll be fine right?

    You should totally fine. You washed your hands so IF there was anything on your hands (which I highly doubt) it has been washed down the drain!! Just keep you hands out of your mouth, nose and eyes and you will be totally fine!!!

    She rang in sick again this morning! Is it even possible for a stomach virus to last 5-6 days? I was doing ok too! What now?!

    I know that people can be really run down after this (especially if they are older) but the actual acts of v* should not last that long. D* can last a few extra days, but that all depends on the person. Just keep up with the hand washing!!
