I don't catch too much of anything fortunately. Lots of handwashing and I'm pretty blunt with my class - they're 10 and 11year olds - and if they're sneezing and coughing and not being hygenic about it, they get a lesson in how not to spread germs.

I actually think exercise somehow keeps bugs from getting a real firm hold on me too. Maybe they don't like the elevated body temp or the increased blood flow.

I do think teachers build up some immunities as well. You get exposed to so much.
