How long is a person with the flu contagious? You can pass the flu to others from 1 day before you have symptoms up to 5-7 days after you get sick. Some people might be able to infect others even longer. Is there treatment? The flu can be treated with antiviral drugs if started soon after you get sick. They will help reduce how sick you get and how long you are ill.
The flu is caused by a virus and spread mainly by coughing, sneezing or close contact. Young children and older adults are at highest risk of getting the flu but anyone can get it. What are the symptoms? Unlike a cold, flu symptoms start suddenly. They appear about 1-4 days after a person is exposed to the flu. Symptoms may include: Fever or feeling feverish/chills. Cough. Sore throat. Runny or stuffy nose. Muscle or body aches. Headache. Tiredness. Some people may have vomiting or diarrhea; this is more common in children.
