    Default VOMITING - child had jabs

    hello just wondering what everyone has in their policy in regards to vomiting.
    I have if a child is sick while they are here they go home.

    What about if a child has had injections? Would you use the 48 hour exclusion as per the HPA guidance?

    Help would be GREATLY appreciated.. thanks

    Agree with Alicek. Might be the jabs but equally as likely to be a bug. Without tests you can't be sure.

    Exclude for 48hrs after first incident.

    Sick is sick! Always send home and 48 hours exclusion.

    I don't care what the reason is, jabs teething, eating too much or too quickley, car sick etc etc etc,

    The act of being sick brings up bacteria from the stomach which can affect other people.
    besides which i absolutely cannot bear clearing up sick!

    I think you mean exclude for 48 hours after LAST incident!
