A member asked:
I think my daughter has the roseola virus. am i the one who gave it to her? will it effect her when she gets older? is herpes virus 6 dangerous?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not harmful: Hhv-6 is harmful only to a fetus. She probably caught it at school. Not a serious problem, unless she exposed a pregnant lady. By the time the rash appears, the person has had the virus for a while and had been contagious. No treatment necessary.
