Flu spreads from a day before symptoms start until about a week after, and kids shed the virus longer than adults.
Everything on this page comes from Gary 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.
