A member asked:

My 4 year old son has the croup. my 86 year old father is very sick in the hospital. how likely is it that i will transfer the virus to my father. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not probable: But you could wear a mask and not touch your father. Visiting him at a "distance" may be uncomfortable, but better safe than sorry. Hope your son and dad are both better soon.
