I've heard that the flu is going around. What are the symptoms and how can I prevent it?

The most common symptoms of the flu include fever, chills, coughing, fatigue, body aches, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, headaches, and sometimes vomiting and diarrhea. To help prevent the flu, it's important to get a flu shot every year, wash your hands frequently, avoid touching your face, cover your mouth and nose when you cough or sneeze, and stay home if you're feeling sick.
