When is Fifth Disease NOT contagious? |
My hubby and I had to take our 7 year old to the emergency room this morning at 5:00am with 103.9 degree fever. She is now fever free, although the rash can last for weeks. My mother-in-law is freaking out that she will contaminate the christmas eve party. Anyone dealt with this? Fifth disease or obnoxious mom-in-law. I do not think my daughter is contagious anymore, as you are most contagious BEFORE the rash. "the period of communicability is right before the onset of the rash, until a few days after." She is probably still contagious, but tell your mom-in-law you are taking her anyway. Then do whatever you think is best. |
