EPAGA U is hosted by Inga Lake and Julie Brubaker, two farm-loving, girl-moms who have been serving families with seniors and individuals with disabilities their entire lives. Tune in each week as they discuss all things caregiving, senior care, and more!
"Influenza (flu) and the common cold are both contagious respiratory illnesses, but they are caused by different viruses. Because colds and flu share many symptoms, it can be difficult (or even impossible) to tell the difference between them based on symptoms alone. Special tests can tell if a person is sick with flu" (CDC).
Cold and flu season is among us! Join us this week as we discus the similarities, differences, symptoms, and treatment options for the common cold vs. a more serious influenza.
