Dear Parents,
I am writing to let you know, that we currently have
had several cases of chickenpox (su cicegi) in school,
spread out in different classes.
Please read the article and look at the web sites
below. If your child develops symptoms they should not
attend school until all the spots are crusted over about
5-6 days after spots appear. It also very important that
if your child develops chickenpox and they have been in
contact with anyone who is pregnant or with a weakened
immune system, that you inform them.
If you want to take your child to the doctor, please
call the doctor first and see how he/she feels about
bringing your child with suspected Chickenpox to her/his
office, in order to avoid unnecessarily exposing people
which may be at risk.
Please feel free to contact me.
