The average incubation period for the flu is 2 days, but it can last anywhere from 1 to 4 days in healthy adults.
Although the typical incubation period for influenza is about one to four days, some adults can be contagious from about one day before onset of symptoms for up to two weeks. Other people who develop complications, such as pneumonia, may extend the contagious period for a week or two.
