One of my kids has hand foot and mouth "disease" right now. When I got it confirmed yesterday at the doctor's they said it was going around big time here. Is it the same around you? For those who don't know it's harmless, but annoying, a little uncomfortable for kids. Basically an itchy rash on most of their body, but spreads among young kids very easily, so it's annoying AF.

My son got it from his daycare. A kid at my daughter's separate daycare had it too and the woman asked me to pick her up early today, fearful my 1 yr old daughter may be getting it too, though I don't see it on her yet. I have three kid and have to keep all 3 quarantined from each other for now. Long story short it's a lot more hassle than if they had a cold or Covid. Sucks.


For your time: the virus that causes it iscoxsackievirus. What a name.
