The flu can be a very serious illness, and it’s important to take precautions if you think you might have it. Symptoms include fever, chills, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, headaches, fatigue, and sometimes vomiting and diarrhea. If you experience any of these symptoms, you should see your doctor as soon as possible. You should also avoid close contact with people who are sick and wash your hands frequently.
