Outbreak, meaning several people in the area have been diagnosed.
My Dads hospice nurse knew I had it and advised me to watch myself by not getting close to him or to touch him. (20 years prior my dad had shingles.)
I took their instructions seriously.
They said if I had had full blown case, and if any of the blisters broke and I was sitting on a couch or other piece of furniture that it actually could be contagious.
I heeded their advice and always sat on a fresh towel a distance away.
But if I had a full blown case, I wouldve been down, too and in pain.
Thank you for your info! ❤️🌷🌺
