Work if important: As an adult, you can make an effort not to spread your oral secretions around the workplace by washing your hands often. If you do so your associates have little to worry about. You have from 7-10 days from the start of symptoms to start treatment in time to prevent worrisome side effects like heart/kidney problems.
