Flu risk
Last update 26 January 21:51
Tips for today
Dress warmly
Wear a hat and scarf
Wear layers to help retain your heat
Wear a windproof jacket, so the wind does not blow the heat from your layers of clothing
Make sure you drink enough. The cold (and dry) air can dry out your mucous membranes, enabling flu viruses to nestle in your sinuses.
Make sure the humidity in your house is not too low. Place a bowl of water on the radiator.
Flu info
Cold, high winds and substantial fluctuations in temperature all affect our resistance and make us more susceptible to viruses. The difference between the symptoms of flu, a bad cold and other virus infections is small. A proper dose of flu can easily cost you a week, whereas you normally get over a cold after a couple of days. The flu forecast lets you see if there is a higher risk of cold or flu as a result of the weather.
