You and your flu
Did you know you can spread the flu before you even show symptoms? Read these tips to help prepare for the flu season:
Symptoms begin suddenly and include fever, headache, extreme fatigue, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches and sometimes diarrhea or vomiting.
Your doctor can diagnose the flu within the first 2-3 days.
Influenza can lead to serious complications: pneumonia or bacterial infections, requiring hospitalization. Each year about 200,000 Americans contract the flu and 36,000 people die from flu complications.
For more information on influenza, visit Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
