So I will say, before this ship, I honestly hadnt ever heard of the virus. I'm 42. Well in my 42 years I have been around mice, cleaned up after them a few times in my life etc. Fast forward to almost 2 wks ago and one got into our cabin in a Tn campground. It happens almost yearly when weather goes warm then we get that quick cold snap again. Never thought about it bc again, I hadnt heard about it. Well I cleaned up after this stupid mouse and of course not in the correct way as they are now saying. I swept and vacuumed. Now I am terrified. I have like til end of june to be out of that 8 wk window now. Then of course I had to come up on a tik tok of a girl in ky who got it last yr and was the first in the state after cleaning up a bunch in her basement the same way. I'm literally spiraling and have little children. I will never clean up after one again, someone else can! But I cant undo what is done😭 submitted by /u/Bringbackthe90z to r/infectiousdisease [link] [comments]
