This is the season! Yes it is the season for flu. As a mom and the prime caregiver at home, I am always watchful for flu symptoms in my family. Have you ever experienced any of these : fever or feeling feverish/chills, cough. sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, muscle or body aches, headaches, fatigue (tiredness) and in some cases there may be vomiting and diarrhea(more common in children than adults)? If you did then flu has plagued you.
My husband is a depot/logistics technician and most of the time in his workplace, he is exposed to "contaminated" people especially when there's flu outbreak. Almost always when he catches it, he spreads it our household, if it's not me, it's our daughter or worse, both of us.

- Wash your hands often with soap and water or an alcohol-based hand rub.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth. Germs spread this way.
- Try to avoid close contact with sick people.
- Practice good health habits. Get plenty of sleep and exercise, manage your stress, drink plenty of fluids, and eat healthy food.
- Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.
- If you are sick with flu-like illness, stay home for at least 24 hours after your fever is gone without the use of fever-reducing medicine (such as Vicks DayQuil and NyQuil Severe)
