@Danell Bryant 🛑 KEEP YOUR KID HOME IF THEY’RE SICK 🤒

(From a Pediatrician Who’s Tired)

❌ DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD TO SCHOOL OR DAYCARE IF THEY HAVE:

✔️ Fever

– 100.4°F (38°C) or higher

– OR fever in the past 24 hours

✔️ Vomiting or Diarrhea

– Even “just once”

– Even if they “seem better now”

✔️ Flu Symptoms

– Body aches

– Chills

– Extreme fatigue

– Headache + fever

✔️ Persistent Cough WITH Fever

✔️ Pink Eye

– Redness + discharge

– Crusting or goopy drainage

✔️ Strep Throat

– Until 24 hours after starting antibiotics

✔️ Needs Medication to Function

– If they need Tylenol or ibuprofen just to get through the day

✔️ Can’t Participate Normally

– Too tired, uncomfortable, or miserable

Perfect Attendance or Holiday Gatherings are not a reason to expose others to your kid’s germs. 🦠 #christmas2025 #newyearseve #pediatrician #momtoks #sickkids
