Rash and flu like symptoms
16:24 Mar 30 2018 Seascape Resort Aptos, CA
Description
We have been vacationing in Aptos, CA and my 13 year-old daughter has developed a painful rash that has caused some swelling and redness, also a fever and flu-like symptoms. It also causes leg twitching due to pin prick pain. Our trip has come shortly after unusually heavy rainfall in the area. I would not have known about this threat had it not been for this website.Additional Data
