It sure doesn't take long...it can kill within hours.
Only one of our two daughters has her immunization up to date, so we'll play it safe and get the other caught up. My wife's the one I worry about, though...her immune system is wiped out due to the chemo drugs she's on, so she's not able to fight anything.
