I'd call the bluff.
That is what I thought so I texted saying I was confused and that I thought that they did have it and they need to stay on the meds until they are gone or else everyone else could get it. She said that one was a false pos and they retested him and are waiting and that she wouldn't send them here sick and contagious and sounded mad. Whatever!
Yesterday she kept them home, but she said that her kids are allergic to red dye #40 and the THEIR doc. gave them antibiotic with it in it so they had to get a new one and had the kids retested and that one of the cultures has not come back yet so they are keeping them on the meds in case....sounds fishy! And I know that they come back right away, but I don't think she knows that I know that.
Parents are so weird sometimes!
