The flu is different from a cold. Both a cold and the flu are
respiratory illnesses, yet they are caused by different types of
viruses with different symptoms. The flu usually comes on
suddenly. To recognize flu symptoms, remember Flu F.A.C.T.S.
(Fever, Aches, Chills, Tiredness, and Sudden onset). Children
can have additional flu symptoms that are rare in adults,
including vomiting and diarrhea. This infograph highlights data
about flu treatment, vaccination and prevention. Visit

coloring book.
