Strange how you guys are talking about hospitals..
I just talked with Kam about that and told her that my mother was in the hospital last year and I visited her. After two days my back began to hurt and I first thought I strained it somehow..but then I got shingles! Around the right side of my back to the front under my right breast.
I was treated with Acyclovir tablets and ointment...It took quite a long time to disappear...shortly after that I had the MAIN outbreak of M.
Although I washed my hands several times there at the hospital and whenever I touched something used disinfectant sollution...hmm..I'm wondering..
Did I 'catch' this at the hospital? I don't know...Was it the combination of an insect bite, flu, hospital germs and psychological stress?
If I recall right..or according Marc Neumanns theory..there must several factors that cause an outbreak..the immune system plays also an important role.
