...but apparently they don't test every suspected case unless they are high risk. There's been a few confirmed cases in the schools here in town and they have been refusing to shut down the schools for cleaning and hopefully breaking the cycle. He started with cough and runny nose on Thursday, got up Friday with a fever of 102.4, vomiting, headache, cough, runny nose and very gray looking. Took him to the Dr. right away and he suspects H1N1. My son has asthma so he's been put on heavy duty antibiotics, prednisone, his nebulizer, etc and to call if he gets worse. His lungs are pretty congested. He seems better this evening but he's still got a low grade fever and cough. I'll be calling the school on Monday to let them know. He got sick quickly, but it's not any more deadly than the seasonal flu, just have to watch for complications. Just venting.
