Rob Frankel, a Southern California based consultant, sent his children to Camp Keystone, in Agoura Hills, California, for summer day camp. In her first days there, his daughter displayed symptoms that required hospitalization - including faintness, loss of feeling in her extremities and slurred speech.

"What they don't put in the brochure is what you have to watch out for," adds Frankel.
