Hey people - both my husband and I are down with this now - he's improving after 8 days of some pretty severe symptoms, mine only appeared this morning. We think he got it at the gym and then passed it on to me, but who knows, really? When we were at the ophthalmologist the other day, they told us they had already seen 15 people just in that one day. VERY contagious and possible damage to the cornea with this particular virus. Take precautions!

Oh no! I hope you are both feeling better soon. Was nervous when I saw this... I know it's very contagious and I have a 1st grader in public school 🙁

I haven't heard of anyone on STJ yet, but it probably won't take long. We have tons of daily commuters between the two islands.
