If the child is well with no symptoms, he/she may continue attending preschool.

The key to controlling the spread of infectious diseases in preschools lies in maintaining high standards of personal and environmental hygiene, early detection and exclusion of children who are ill. As such, parents should monitor their children closely and check for signs of infectious disease before bringing them to the preschool.
