There are three important actions to protect against the flu and other illnesses, along with protecting those around you.
Get Vaccinated. Everyone six months of age and older should get a flu vaccine every season, especially people at high risk.
Preventive Action. Take actions every day to help stop the spread of germs. Wash your hands regularly, wear a facemask, avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth, practice good health habits, and, most importantly, go home and/or stay home when you are sick.
Treatment. See a healthcare provider and stay home until you are better. The recommendation from the CDC is 24 hours after your fever is gone.
