hand foot mouth disease

Dear World,

This week I met another little girl with hand, foot & mouth disease {caused by coxsackievirus}. If your child has the hand, foot & mouth disease please KEEP THEM AT HOME. This virus is VERY contagious and pregant women should NOT be around this!

My sister is towards the end of her pregnancy so I'm sure this is where my letter to the world is coming from, out of great concern.
