In a child care setting, can pink eye be passed around, with children who had it previously becoming reinfected (within a week or two)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infection control: Children with pink eye are isolated to limit the ongoing spread and ping pong effects. Frequent hand washing is a must for the children and their caregivers.
