It is usually used to reference a localized infection as opposed to a systemic infection. Systemic infections are those that affect the whole body or an entire system of the body and can also be called sepsis, septicemia, blood infection, blood poisoning, and bacteremia, etc.
The term local or localized infection is used to reference smaller infections in a single location in your body, like cellulitis of the skin or a bladder infection. Local infections can become whole body infections if left untreated or treated with the wrong medications. Common localized infections that can become systemic infections are pneumonia, urinary tract or bladder infections, appendicitis, and infections of cuts/skin infections.

You can, because you have the ability to, but it doesn't mean you will or you should. Most people don't feel like swimming with the flu. If you have the flu you should be resting in bed to allow your body to have all the energy it needs to fight the flu and heal yourself.
If you have a fever from the flu, swimming in a lake or cool pool can mask the symptoms and make you feel temporarily better, but that will only be temporary and the exercise will make you feel worse once you get out. If you get in a heated pool, it could make your fever worse. Don't use a hot tub when you have a fever.
If you are in a lake or pool without chemicals to kill germs, you could be shedding viruses that might live long enough to infect someone else in the same water. Don't swim with others when you are sick with any infectious disease.
Being out in public if you are still sick risks giving it to other people whether they are in the water with you or not. Stay home.
So, the bottom line is you can but you should not.

Cricket bites are more annoying than dangerous. These little insects bite out of self defense, so unless they're trapped in your hands or between you and your clothes, there isn't much to worry about. When a cricket does bite you'll know for sure - it will be a small sharp pain and burn. The best remedy is a dab of polysporin - this will help prevent infection but also relieve the pain and burning pretty quick. In my experiences, the polysproin did the job within about 1-2 min (stopped pain and burn, reduced redness and mild swelling). Of course if you are allergic to insect bites, you need to seek health care immediately. As far as the insect community is aware, there are no poisonous crickets. In fact, if a cricket is in your house, I would be more concerned about finding holes in my wardrobe and clothes than being bit!
