FAQ
What exactly is influenza, and how does it spread?
Influenza is a highly infectious illness. It is a viral infection that attacks the respiratory system and is transmitted via breathing the virus when it is released into the air when someone coughs, sneezes or even speaks.
Influenza Side effects
Fever, runny noses, headaches, body/muscle pains, sore throat, tiredness, cough, and watery eyes are all indications of the flu. Children might also have vomiting and diarrhoea. Most side effects last 3-5 days. However, cough and tiredness might continue for up to two weeks.
