It was pretty clear that was it once [livejournal.com profile] bexone mentioned it and I read about the symptoms. Sigh.

Yeah the internet said you can have antibiotics for it... but that they're not effective later on? But it sounded like she was saying they don't do antibiotics for it at all. It was kind of weird. Maybe it's a new thing because there's the whole concern about antibiotics being prescribed too freely so bugs develop resistances, and in this case the thing clears up by itself without them so they're considered extraneous? Hm, I dunno.

I know it's supposed to be super contagious, but I've been coughing my face off for two weeks in the lab and none of my coworkers are ill. How long is its incubation time? I assumed i got it on the plane home, though I suppose I could mention it to Dara and Niall. No one I was in close contact with in Dublin has mentioned being sick though.
