How Contagious Is Flu With Conjunctivitis?
Hi,
I am currently 31 weeks pregnant. - My 8 week old god son has been rushed into hospital with Adenovirus. I am subsequently looking after his 18 month old brother, who currently has flu and conjunctivitis (possibly connected??). Am i or my unborn child at risk?

Hello
Welcome to Health care magic
Flu with conjunctivitis is very contagious. But it will not spread to unborn child hence no need to worry.
The spread to others can be prevented by avoiding close contact.
Thank you
