    Default OH dear-- been exposed

    To whooping cough by a co-worker. We've been told that our previous immunizations are no longer good. We're dropping like flies at work--- sent several coworkers to the ER with symptoms today and now I feel lousy.

    I have too much going on to be sick!

    It's caused by a bacteria, so antibiotics can treat it. However, if you have the symptoms- they make you miss work until you are treated. That means 7-10 days off work. We're working with a skeleton crew anyway, and I have a full schedule of work and home plans for the next month!

    Yikes! I hope that that nasty bug leaves you alone.

    At least there are meds to treat it, but who wants to be sick?
