Heymann says the virus is spread by direct contact, or large droplets of body fluids possibly deposited on surfaces. He rules out spread by tiny, aerosol droplets. "If that was the case we'd have far more cases," he told New Scientist. This sounds promissing. I get the feeling that unless you are coughed on or sneezed on, you should be able to avoid exposure with good handwashing habits. (the challenge being getting your children to do the same)

Seems like schools are the breeding grounds. Sheesh, you no more than get your child well and back in the classroom, when they either catch it again, or catch something else.
