I am a nanny, the mother of the family that I work for has Ecoli, and she has a kidney infection, I've noticed that they are really unclean with food and meat, ( they transfer raw meat from sink to couter to the fridge then set things on top of the raw meat in the fridge,They do not wash their hands or counter tops,

Plus the mother has a boyfriend who is very unclean. and they will touch the dog waste and empty garbages without washing their hands. I won't eat any food when I am at work, but today she wants me to come with when she takes to kids to the pool (can Ecoli spread in a pool), Should I not get in the water with them, What are ways that I can stay safe without offending them.

I need to keep this job it pays more then any job I've ever had.

Hi, I'm 19 and I had a blood test over a month ago that indicated an abnormality in my blood count, but the doctor was unsure what it was. I then repeated a blood test one month later and the results showed that I had a slightly low white blood count.

What does it mean when it's only a SlIGHTLY low white blood cell count as I'm aware of some serious implications if your white blood cell count is very low

also i would like to add that I have had no colds or infections in the past two months, but have certainly been feeling quite down with possible signs of depression, would this affect my low white blood count?

thanks : )

So many people have been kind enough to answer my questions about Guatemala. I've been told the Vacination for Malaria can have worse side effects than the actual illness. Are the shots necessary or optional? Are all the diseases listed rampant there, only in rural areas?

Hey guys. I recently got someone else's fresh blood on my hand, and now I am freaking out that that blood may have been HIV positive. There were no open cuts or sores on my hand, and after seeing it I did not touch anything else, washed the hand with soap in pipping hot water, poured some bleach on the area and washed it again with soap and hot water. I then washed both my hands like I would normally. I know I should go get teste just in case, but assuming the blood was HIV positive, am I at any risk? Is there any chance of the virus still being alive on my hand? Can I do normal things like take a shower and touch other things, or will I get the virus on other things that I touch, or to other parts of my body in the shower with the water?
Please help I am kind of freaking out...
