I've noticed people in Beaverton/Hillsboro are really bad at washing their hands in public. I'm at the movies a lot and every single time I go to the bathroom there's someone walking right out. I've been seeing a few people with masks on (although way more when I was in Toronto three weeks ago), but like those wont help you at all if you're not washing your hands.

Since kids are only developing a very mild illness from this, it seems most likely that this teacher caught it from one of the students.
