It’s that time of year. Even though you are doing everything
right—flu vaccines, hand washing, disinfecting, wearing
masks, and keeping a safe distance from others—illnesses may
sneak into your home. Should you test for COVID? Call your
pediatrician? How long should you keep away from others?

right away. If an older child has a temp of 100.4 or higher,
they must stay home. Before COVID, older kids could often be
watched at home as long as drinking, eating, breathing, and
acting ok. With the pandemic, most schools will want you to test
since fever is a COVID symptom.
