Cal I don't think that I sent you the Promedmail.org? (i think it is org), notice yesterday.
children with Hoof and mouth disease has had a couple of notices in the past couple weeks, China ? or? Russia.
But yes, it is in the other side of the world.
I never heard of it as childrens disease before.
I was reading the link that WestCoastGal posted:

From what I read, it seems the Agricultural Disease is different then the child disease. My partner did use the word coxsackie as well as foot and mouth though.
I honestly never heard of foot and mouth disease as a childhood disease myself. I always thought it was an agricultural disease.
Mamadearest and Domestic Church might be able to clear this up when they login though.
