Will I catch it?!
Question:
Will I catch it?
I was at horse camp today and yesterday. One girl there went home sick yesterday and was back today. Today we played a relay where you put a wet sponge on your head and run through poles and jumps. The sick girl was in my group of like 10-15 pple. I went before her and then we played again, so she had already touched the sponge. The sponge goes back into the bucket of water before placed on the next person's head. After several pple went after the sick girl it was my turn again when i put it on my head (after it was in the bucket) some water ran down my face into my mouth. Do you think i will catch the virus?
She hadn't been sick since midnight but she was probably still contagious at 1:30 p.m. right?

Answers:
Chances are you will be fine. Being that you were in the sun and exerting energy, a bit of "infected" water probably wont harm you. Besides if she was back the next day, she probably was just feeling a little under the weather. You sound way to young to be this paranoid. I am sure you will be ok. Just have fun and enjoy camp =)
