Does anyone know why HFM has been so prevalent in the last few years? I can’t remember it being a thing when I was a kid, but now it seems like every kid we know has had it. Our day home lady hadn’t had an outbreak in over 35 years until this year. Thankfully, our kids had very mild symptoms and the adults were able to not get sick.
