The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

This happened to me as a very young kid (6 maybe?) in the early 90s. All my school friends got sick from the party. Apart from the itching and sore throat, I remember just playing with Lego for a few days instead of going to school and it was great.

One of the dads (neighbour) got it and had to stay at the hospital for a few days.
