At the Junior School on the same site as my son's Senior school, they have Influenza A and Strep A.

Does "6,7" count? Because that's most definitely plaguing my class! 😁

No absences today. But quite a few had a headache this afternoon...

I teach English in France and was pretty sure I'd be safe but noooooo a kid came out with it on Friday FML.

Covid is doing the rounds here. I'm trying to ignore the sore throat and headache currently brewing in me. 😬

Flu too already? Kids at my school haven’t had their vaccinations yet.

😂😂😂 My son is saying it too. He has explained what it means, several times, but I still don’t get it! 🤷🏿‍♀️
No bugs at my school yet but DD has one.

Covid has joined the club too (probably had already joined, but now official).
