Best Answer

No. It is very easy to transmit this disease. The Spanish Influenza killed many people in this country because it became so viral, and it was so easily transmitted. It can be transmitted by air ( sneezing & coughing). Keep your hands washed. The flu or cold virus can live for several days on hard surfaces. Do not touch your hands to face or nose or mouth. Cover your mouth or nose with a tissue when coughing or sneezing. Avoid being too close to those that are ill with it. Best to stay home when you have a fever with the flu & take C, Zinc, rest, get plenty of fluids.
