mumps

I went to work this morning. This girl said you shouldnt sit by me I might have mumps. I immediately moved but im freaking out. She wont get her test results until Monday. Why would she go to work and possibly expose everyone. Im 37 weeks pregnant.

Should be fine but im 30. I guess your immunity to it can fade after time. Im getting a immunity test Monday to make sure. There are a few people around here who have gotten it and have had there shots. One was a 8 year old child :(

Yeah she needs to be sent home... but on the plus side, if you were born here in the USA then you should be fine because you should have got vaccinated for it when you were a child.
