This is comforting knowledge Sannah. I think ? as long as it can be contained . Its that it can be spread by a carrier who doesn't know they are ill thats the concern .
I have a friend who could go back into some fears and past behaviors that made thier life unmanageable but is aware of where this could take them.
For me I'm the opposite of suds and scrub. And for the first time Ive found myself thinking . maybe having a sample at krogers is not such a good idea. . Or wondering maybe I should wash that piece of fruit or my hands more which may be a good thing. I rarely get sick . its more when Im in a gym with lots of people or in a suana that I do .
I think taking precaustions to protect self and others is a good thing. Just not to excess.
