Re: is Staph contagious

Hi ,

It is my understanding that staph is only contagious to other kids with CF, so

unless they think the new additions have it I would go right ahead and visit

them.

I am so sorry that there is infection there, But I think that if you keep

a reasonable distance then you

need not worry. You could just follow the 3 ft. rule for passing infections

& washing hands.....not touching everything in sight unless your aware of

what /where it has been. Make it a quick visit & plan on not being too

close. I believe all will be fine.

I do hope you have a wonderful time .. waiting to hear from you again soon.

LOVE & Hugs, grandmomBEV
