If my daughter was sick with the stomach flu last Sat., am I still in danger of catching it?

Or am I out of the incubation period now?

    She can shed the virus for a couple of weeks after the symptoms clear.

    LOTS of hand-washing for both of you, and anyone else in the household. That's the ticket.

    Yes, you are still at risk. Bugs like that can live on surfaces for a while. I would spray all surfaces down with lysol or some other disinfectant.

    You could, but it would be more likly that you would have few days ago. But she's still contagous for about a week. If your not feeling well still by tommarow morning you probably got it.
