This is BS. The Influenza A Quick-Tests have been proven to have at least 50% false negatives.

If you had high fever, extreme fatigue that did not allow you to go about your day, and a sudden cough or lung congestion with it, in the past 5 months, you had H1N1. Period. Even if you tested negative.

And you may have had different symptoms and STILL have had H1N1; you will never know.

People are not stupid. Just because they thought their child already had H1N1 does not mean they will send her to school very sick now.

This article is crap.

I agree that this may not change people's minds about H1N1, but people already send their sick kids to school.

They don't need an article to help them make that decision. Plenty of them are irresponsible already, in part thanks to schools reinforcing the idea that parents aren't supposed to be in charge of their children's welfare.
