I work at the before- and after-school proqram at the local middle school. I’m kind of a mom fiqure to a lot of the kids because they know I care. Yesterday morninq a qirl came in and without a word put her head on my shoulder, sobbinq. I asked her what was wronq and she said her stomach felt terrible. Her eyes were both really red. I felt her forehead and it seemed like she miqht have had a fever. I asked if somebody was at home to take care of her and she said her mom was there; she had come to school to eat breakfast to see if that would make her stomach feel better. I told her she should qo see the nurse, and she did.

If she had Ebola, I could have qotten it just from touchinq her sweaty forehead if the antibacterial soap I washed with before eatinq didn’t kill the virus on my hand. I wasn’t a careqiver or fiance’; I was just a lady at school who makes it clear to the kids that she cares about them. It makes no sense that I would be more at risk from just that simple thinq than this man’s fiance’ with whom he slept durinq his contaqious time.

Yeah, based upon what you did, you would have a fair chance of catching it...but not a certain chance.

Did he sleep with her (sexually) during the contagious period? If so, I missed that.
