Brief Answer:
Considerations
Detailed Answer:
hello and thank you for sending the question.
At this point there is only a remote possibility that your wife will come down with a serious illness. Regarding precautions, I would recommend that she continue good daily nutrition, hydration and obtain adequate rest.
There is no indication to take any prophylactic antibiotic or supplement otherwise at this time.
if she begins to experience symptoms of progressive upper respiratory congestion, cough, sputum production or fever then I would recommend that she visit with her local primary care provider for examination and recommendations.
Thank you again for sending your question.
