If your child has rsv when will you be able to go back to work?

No need to stay out: Rsv is responsible for 70% of common cold like symptoms in season & not considered a general health threat.Good handwashing, covering a cough, tossing used tissues, etc. Are considered adequate control measures for those who may have minor symptoms. Rsv probably infects at least half of us every season if we have significant exposure.

Anytime!: The virus is spread in the air when the child coughs or sneezes. Child with RSV can spread it for a week or longer. If the daycare has children under one year or children with lung, heart or immune problems, then the child should not return until well for a week.
