    He's going to pick up every plague and pestilence ever from that hive of disease. He'll bring them home and probably make you sick, also. It's not going to seem like it at the time, but this is also likely a good thing.

      Oh he's 10 steps ahead of you there. We're all crook thanks to him. Do you reckon our immune systems get better as a result too?

        With the caveat that I am not a qualified medical professional by any stretch of the imagination: I believe that the earlier that we are introduced to the assorted regular viruses and colds etc, the better our immune systems will be taught to fight them off, yes.

        I assume this is a given if your kid is in daycare, but the above is a compliment to a proper vaccination programme, not an alternative to it.

          Of course. I sort of hated when the MCH nurse asked us about vaccines as if we were gonna argue with her or say no, but I guess they get that a lot.
