What are the flu symptoms?

Winter Flu Symptoms

The symptoms of the flu can vary in severity and may include:

  • Sudden fever of 37.8°C (100°F) or higher
  • Dry or chesty cough
  • Sore throat
  • Runny or stuffy nose
  • Muscle and body aches
  • Fatigue/exhaustion
  • Headache
  • Chills
  • Vomiting or diarrhoea (more common in children)

Typically, symptoms begin with a cough or sneeze, leading to the spread of small droplets containing the virus. These droplets can either be inhaled by others or settle onto surfaces that may be touched. Even individuals with minor or no symptoms can still transmit the infection to others.

In severe cases, the flu can lead to complications such as pneumonia, bronchitis, and worsening of underlying health conditions. High-risk individuals, including the elderly, young children, pregnant women, and individuals with certain chronic health conditions, are more susceptible to severe flu symptoms and complications.

Preventive measures, such as getting an annual flu vaccine, practicing good hygiene (like washing hands frequently), and avoiding close contact with sick individuals, can help reduce the risk of contracting and spreading the flu.
