• 脓疱病

  Your child will be allowed to attend school as long as the impetigo is covered. 脓疱病 often breaks out around the nose and mouth and cannot be covered. 在这些情况下, keep your child at home until they have received treatment medication for at least 24 hours. In all instances, your child should have treatment for the impetigo.

• 流感

  The flu is caused by the influenza virus. We would like you to be aware of the symptoms so that you can seek appropriate medical care when necessary.

   

  Most students present with a fever greater than 101° and headache. A cough and congestion are soon to follow along with body aches and sore throat. If your student is exhibiting any of these symptoms, we suggest he or she see their healthcare provider for assessment and possible treatment with Tamiflu. 然而, 对于大多数健康人来说, the flu is a self-limited illness that will resolve within a week to ten days. Symptomatic care including fever reducers, fluids and rest are the standard treatment.

   

  Our best defense is that if your child is sick, please keep them home from school until they are symptom free and/or can manage their symptoms themselves. They should also be fever free without the aid of fever reducers for 72 hours. Remind them the importance of washing their hands and covering their mouth should they present with a cough.

   

  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me or any member of the clinic staff.

   

  To you and your children’s good health,

  Dr. 安妮·马泰赛
