visitors

Some people have asked about visiting Jonathan/me. :) RSV is highly contagious, however it is not airborn. It is transmitted via saliva. The virus can live up to 48 hours on any surface. It manifests itself in adults as a common cold and is only dangerous for little children. If you wash your hands before and after your visit you should be fine (as long as you don't kiss Jonathan on the mouth :) If you would like to visit (and I would love the company--but don't worry--I am FINE), the hospital says you can come if you are over 12 and free from illness. Visiting hours are from 8 am to 8 pm. Call me for information for the hospital he's in and what room number. 480-223-2440.
