Summary |
This volume covers both common and unusual infections and illnesses prevalent in this population, and offers practical guidance on issues of contagion, treatment, and transmission in this setting. Chapters also address special considerations for children who are at high risk of acquiring infection, or at risk of spreading infection in the daycare arena. The authors offer specific recommendations on how to deal with endemic problems of infection and transmission. -- Provided by publisher. |
