Is strep throat going around Zion, Illinois?
Not right now. No confirmed strep throat activity has been reported at Zion, Illinois schools and daycares in the past 14 days. That can mean it is quiet, or simply that nobody nearby has logged it yet.
How Zion parents can tell
- Sudden sore throat without a cough
- Painful swallowing
- Fever over 100.4 F
- Swollen neck glands or white patches on the tonsils
Kids are no longer contagious after 12 to 24 hours on antibiotics, so most schools allow a return the next day.
Everything on this page comes from Zion parents logging what their kids actually had, stripped of anything identifying. Nothing shows up until at least two families report the same thing, so one sick child never puts a school on the map.
