"When the influenza virus hits the U.S. each year, it hits hard. February is the height of flu season, followed by December, January, and March. However, there have been outbreaks as early as October. Anyone can catch flu, and most healthy adults have symptoms that can last five to seven days. The most common flu symptoms include headaches, fever, chills, fatigue, and body aches. These symptoms should be a signal to stay home to rest and not run the risk of infecting others. While this is an important prevention tip, it is possible to contract flu if you’ve been exposed to someone who has been infected 24 hours before their symptoms set in, and 24 hours after their fever breaks. According to the CDC, the flu virus is spread mainly by tiny droplets that are dispersed by coughs, sneezes, and talking. Flu not only spreads from person to person but also from touching a surface on which the tiny droplets may have landed." - AliMed
