If you are methotrexate and or steroids your immmune system is lowered, making you more suseptible to all illness,
The hand foot and mouth virus is a relatively mild virus and most adults would have some degree of immunity.
To be safe avoid direct skin/ body contact and wash hands regularly
HI Jaqi i asked the same myself a week ago, i was with kids who had it and i didn/t get it.
