Stomach Flu/my Roomate Posted: 04-17-07 22:24pm
Hi everyone!
I am a sophomore in college and tonight
when I came in my room, my roomate said
she had the stomach flu... yuck! She is at
home now recovering from throwing up, but
I guess some other students have had this
and some have had it so bad they have been
hospitalized. Is it really that serious?
Also, I become quite scared/paranoid with
people throwing up,etc. I just can't
handle it! Anyway, since i'm her roomate
and don't want to get it myself I lysoled
everything she could have possibly touched
like door knobs, faucet handles,toilet
handle, cleaned off the toilet,etc. What
are the odds of me getting this stomach
flu since I do live with her, but do not
touch her, but touch the same things she
does? Do you think I am protected if I
keep washing my hands and Lysoling
everything?
