is fierce. It can feel like dominoes falling at your home. One person goes down, and then the next one is sick.

But as you all begin to recover, another round of questions come up: When can you get out of the house and be social if you just had the flu or were taking care of someone with the flu? When can you return to work or send your kids to school without worrying about getting others sick?Have you gone 24 hours without a fever and without taking acetaminophen, ibuprofen or other similar medicine?
