An adult infected with influenza may be contagious from one day before symptoms start to 5 to 7 days after becoming sick. Children may continue to be contagious for longer than 7 days. Staying home until your contagious period has likely passed will help you avoid passing the flu on to other people.
Losing a job is one reason individuals decide to file bankruptcy. Bankruptcies and other adverse actions are listed on a person's credit report. Generally, filing for bankruptcy will stay on a person's credit report for 10 years. Individuals who have a serious problem with debt may file for bankruptcy.
The bankruptcy itself and the debts associated with the bankruptcy will be displayed differently on your credit report. A completed Chapter 13 bankruptcy will stay on your report for up to seven years, and discharged debts will also stay on the report up to seven years after they are discharged.
