Cold and Flu

that's exactly what my dad asked because i my brother had it and he was supposed to fly to California and he didnt and my whole family got sick so i say not at first

Typical flu symptoms will be overall body aches, fever, and sometimes vomiting. Usually the person will just feel miserable and want to rest and sleep. The flu can last from 24 hours to several days.

It can still be found in outbreaks across the globe although the pandemic has been declared over. Most recently it was still active in India.

Two Europian medications NAZIVIN and GALAZOLIN could forever dry your nose.

Easy: I make a cup with my hand and inhale running water from the tap, three or four times. This helps cleaning your nose.

Let one minute pass. Try again.

Maybe again.

Take a rest.

Most probable your nose won't annoy you for some minutes.

Try again. In most cases it helps a lot.

Also in any case your nose is stuffed and cannot sleep - do it.

I know some people find this awful. My family abhor it, but my boss recommended it to me many years ago and it has been enormously helpful for me.

Instead of killing mostly infants and elderly, it had little effect on them and killed mostly young adults. A group rarely significantly affected by flu. It also caused significant neurological problems in some survivors, which is also rare for flu.

Active. It will go directly to find a host cell and begin the steps of the lytic cycle to cause the host's cell to replicate the virus (see the related questions for more about the lytic cycle). It does not stay "dormant" inside you to manifest symptoms later. An infection will produce symptoms right away if you are infected. Then, once new viruses are made in the host cell, they will burst out and infect more cells and potentially more people.

Kleenex. *chuckle*

No. Live vaccines are produced with careful culturing methods that ensure the virus is no longer able to do much, if any, harm.

In addition, they're given in the arm, which is not where a virus spreads from, and is not the optimal location for the viruses, so your immune system can quickly get it.

Symptoms of H1N1 swine flu are like regular flu symptoms and include fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, body aches, headache, chills, and fatigue. Many people with swine flu have had diarrhea and vomiting.

There have been several over the decades. The first one found was the one that pigs get (hence the name), H1N1, in the1930's. Then when people started being able to catch that one or mutations of that one, there is speculation that there could have been several others in retrospect, including the "Spanish Flu" that started the influenza pandemic in 1918, but there are no longer samples to test that hypothesis. Then there was the 1976 swine flu (see more in related questions), and now most recently, the H1N1/09 swine flu, the one that caused the 2009 pandemic and still circulating and making people ill today.

See the related questions below, about when swine flu started and what caused the 2009 swine flu to develop, for more details.

All countries have been affected by the swine flu infections of their people. "Most" affected would have to be based on a definition of what is considered an affect and how to measure the affect. By percentages, the count of cases and deaths is relatively equal among countries, although perhaps North American countries have had the most affect.

There may be some ongoing cases in limited locations around the world, however, even now. The specifics and counts of cases are no longer being tracked by CDC, WHO, the US states, and most other countries, now that the pandemic has been declared over, preventive vaccines are available, and people are educated on prevention. Influenza cases are monitored, but specific H1N1/09 counts (and the lab tests needed to isolate the specific virus to be able to count them correctly) aren't being done. Influenza cases in general are monitored, but statistics are not being kept for H1N1/09 cases separately from other influenza types for reporting any longer in the post pandemic phase.

Yes, and if you are taking oral contraceptives and the doctor gives you an anti-biotic it can kill not only the bug, but the effectiveness of your pill.

No. Getting out in the sun may help get rid of a cold, but running or any physical exercise is contraindicated (not good) when you have a cold. Your body needs rest to do the work to get rid of your cold, so you should avoid strenuous exercise like running if you want to get rid of a cold faster.

no

If you are asking about an allergic reaction, they usually occur within minutes of receipt of the injection or within the hour afterward. This is one reason that the newest guidelines say that some people with allergies to the traces of egg in the vaccine can get the vaccination anyway, as long as they are monitored closely afterward. See the related question below for more on that.

If you are asking about a reaction like the local irritation, tenderness, and redness at the site of the injection, those are usually noticed the next day and will go away typically in 3 days or so after. That type of inflammatory reaction is not an allergic response, it is part of the process our bodies use to attack foreign substances that have invaded our bodies.

Yes, it actually does. Ive been anemic for years and always get both nose bleeds and headaches

If you suffer from sore throats, you may experience anything from a scratchy feeling to intense pain, notes MayoClinic.com. Other symptoms include difficulty swallowing, a hoarse voice, swollen glands and a dry throat. Time and home treatments to ease the pain are usually the best remedies for sore throats caused by something other than bacterial infections. Licorice root is one traditional herbal therapy for sore throats.

to be bitten by a chihuahua then be so surprised you fall off a cliff and are caught by a tree when one of the branches hooks your shirt collar and you then plunge into icy water below and when you feel the onset of hypothermia are grabbed by a great white shark and are pulled under water and eaten by the shark. The remains of you that the shark missed when they were dismembered from your body (arms, fingers) are eaten and digested by giant squid, who find your taste slightly repulsing.

The Spanish inlfuenza was an especially virulent virus that spread across the world in 1918, killing many millions of people. It was likely carried around the globe by soldiers returning from World War I (1914-1918). Both soldiers and civilians may have been made more susceptible by malnutrition -- there were famines in many of the countries where the war was waged.

As many as 500 million people became infected, and between 50 and 100 million died.

You should ask the surgeon to answer that question. The answer could depend on your individual circumstances, such as underlying diseases or disorders, stage of recovery, surgical complications, and healing. It might make no difference at all, but your doctor who knows your medical history should give you that advice.

orange juice,and sunny delight things with vitamin A and C that helps the system clean it out get a lot of rest right after you take it. There is no medichine for flues the vitamin C and A act like the medichine for it. Thank you ! Liz PS I'm hot even though it's cold out. (gigglles) I mean (giggles) sorry my computer wont let me erase.
