The rule of thumb is that you will be contagious with influenza until you have gone a full 24 hours straight without any fever, when measured with a thermometer. If there is still fever, regardless of the length of the illness to that point, you should take precautions to avoid spreading the flu. Most symptoms of the flu are gone in 7 - 10 days, including the fever and sore throat, sneezes and malaise and fatigue, however, the cough is usually the last symptom to leave and might last even 2 weeks after the other symptoms have cleared. If yours is continuing beyond that time frame, or if you start having fevers again, you should have an exam by your health care professional to be sure you do not have a secondary bacterial infection or other cause of the cough besides the flu.
