No one here would be qualified to say for sure as we’re not medical professionals, but pleurisy is essentially inflammation often triggered by a virus: my own understanding would be that if you have no other underlying respiratory condition like asthma or COPD, for example, or other health need that elevates your risk of complications with covid, pleurisy in and of itself wouldn’t make you any higher risk if your granddaughter brought it home.

We do, indeed! Now, as long as 10 other people don’t come along and completely disagree with me, you’re all set 😉 Take care.
