Well, darling, the period of communicability for rheumatic fever is about 2-3 weeks after the onset of the illness. But let's be real, it's not like you can catch it from a sneeze or a handshake. It's more about the bacteria causing strep throat leading to rheumatic fever, so just wash your hands and cover your mouth when you cough, honey.
