When Does it End

[blackrabbit]

Haven't been on here since last year...Things were starting to look good. February finally ended (the month that is notorious for the SV) and I have been relieved of that. However, my mom just said my sister just v* at work and now she's coming home. Great. She's going to bring the germ home and I really don't want to get it. How long does this sv* season go until? I need to stop thinking about getting sick. I'm scared to death of it.

Also, what is a surefire way to catch it (obviously I want to prevent catching it) ? Is it airborne? Can I get it if someone v* in a bathroom and I avoid that bathroom? Or will the germ "float" its merry little way throughout my house? I have a big family so when someone gets sick so does another (7 people total) ugh! My brothers are bad about washing their hands and my dad always makes fun of me by making v* noises. I hate this time of year!

It's not airborne, only for a few sec when the person is actively v*ing. And then you have to stand pretty close to it, for it to infect you. Dont worry about the germs "floating" through your house, if everyone including the ill one practise proper hand washing, the virus will stay in the bathroom. And then you can bleach it down, to kill/get rid of the virus.

As long as you wash your hands you'll be fine. Avoids the bathroom she gets sick in if you can. It's not airborn so you don't have to worry about that.

also if the weather is nice, open some windows and doors let some fresh air through!

You know I hate it when people mock you for your fears like that.....honestly I get to the point, that if someone makes fun of me for something I am afraid of, I find what THEY are afraid of and do it to them. Then when they tell me to stop, I say YOU FIRST!
