alternityTo all concerned:
There is no need to worry about the recent spate of illnesses at Hogwarts. This year appears to be a slightly heavy cold and flu season. However, with a little bit of vigilance and a little bit of magic, all those students who have been feeling under the weather will be right as rain in no time. The best cure, of course, is simple common sense: at the first sign of a cough or a sniffle, students should report to Madam Pomfrey for care. Caught early, none of the illnesses going around will require even a day's bed-rest.
Those who are lax enough to fail to report their symptoms ought to view their worse illness as the proper punishment for careless behavior, and mend their ways the next time they feel ill. No matter how foul medicine may taste, it isn't as foul as missing a much-anticipated Quidditch match, or having to make up one's school-work!
