Well here's the thing....at least this is how it was explained to me some time ago and I'm happy to take correction on this. You feel sick because of your immune system's response to whatever you have. You may not feel sick at all because your immune system is so smashed at the moment. I don't have kids, I have dogs and I can throw them outside. I guess you can't do that to your kids huh :-) What I do when I can't keep away from sick people is try and follow as strict hygene as I can e.g. washing hands and encourage others around me to do the same. I also take vitamin C every day but whether that actually helps or not I'm unsure.
Well, that's either helpful or confusing or a bit of both
