about a week ago, my daycare has a sign on the window stating that they have had a few cases of hand, foot and mouth disease. And wouldn't you know, 4 days ago, my 1-yr old (doesn't go to daycare yet), me and my wife (pregnant) get knocked the f**k over with this virus.
Upon investigation, it seems that it is rare for people over the age of 5 to contract this virus, but in my family, we are batting 1,000. Interestingly, 5-yr-old that goes to this daycare does not have it. Go figure.
Reason for post: I've been hearing about multiple adults contracting this virus all-of-a-sudden. Anyone else privy to this?
There have been a few outbreaks of Hand/Foot/Mouth disease in Asia over the past decade. I never heard of adults getting it. Naturally, parents in Asian countries worry about their kids contracting it. There's not much they can do beyond teaching their kids proper hygiene.
If I were to contract this disease, I would first see if a micropulser works. That is a little electronic device that goes over the wrist and forces the blood in the wrist arteries to pass by a very mild, pulsing electric field. With most viruses, the outer shell of the virus will break apart when exposed to this field and the virus will be rendered harmless.
Micropulsers can be made at home if you know how to construct basic electronic circuits. They can also be purchased from companies like SOTA in Canada.
I personally know 3 adults that have contracted what their doctor has termed 'hand, foot and mouth disease" within the past week.
Micropulser....very interesting. I shall research, thank you my fren.
