"The enterovirus normally causes nausea and vomiting, but this particular strand, enterovirus 68, is causing severe respiratory problems among children." -21 Alive
"Mimics the common cold but within hours many of those affected become severely ill and many require trips to ICU." — via CBS News
This appears tonight that it's making its way into our community. It is supposed to spread a cross the entire country through the fall and winter. This is severe. This is putting children in ICU.
I just had a friend have her son come down with this today and she had other friends with kids come down from it this weekend. One girl stated that her child had labored breathing and was pre pneumonia by the time they got to the hospital. Started symptoms coughing ect that day. My fiends son started coughing this morning and was vomiting and labored breathing just a few hours ago.
Nervous because I have obamacare which does not pay pretty much anything and a $7,000 deductible after paying 700 per month in premiums. I can't afford to have my kids in the hosptial.
I am freaking out.
I know all I am going to hear is.... "it's just cold" or "He's just teething"....
