So they'll just go to the library instead the playground at recess?

I dunno; someone here--D.C. Sessions, IIRC--used to claim that there
were documented cases of transmission via paper cuts! g (If you, or
anyone else, can provide such documentation, I'd love to see it. D.C.,
or whoever it was that made the assertion, never did when asked.)

Just what goes takes place on your schools' playgrounds, PF? Orgies?
Group piercings? Tattooing?

If you can find a verified, documented case of "recess transmission,"
please point me to it. Certainly if an instance of "blood swapping" did
occur, post-exposure prophylaxis could be considered/initiated.
