After a long hiatus, the winter illness season is here in full force, and so the "Illness of the Week" feature will begin making more regular appearances. We have not seen any Influenza activity yet, but we are seeing the following illnesses:
1.) RSV is very prevalent. For older kids and adults, this can look like a common cold. For babies and younger children, RSV can be much more severe, causing wheezing and breathing difficulty.
2. ) There is a stomach virus causing lots of vomiting and diarrhea. Call if you are concerned that your child could be getting dehydrated.
