Im a health science major in UCLA , i have been down with this terrible flu for over a month ,it worries me a lot while health officials dont pay attention to the flu outbreak,instead the politics has taken all over the media , i have used nearly all advertised flu medications , i had to drop some of my classes because i couldnt afford to spread it to other students.is there any one who can help me with a med to reduce this ugly symptoms ,expecially running nose and sneezing .

Wow, I thought it was just my area and college that has had these out breaks! I go to Indian Hills Community College, in Ottumwa Iowa and it is spreading like wildfire. I had to wait a few hours to get to our campus health office. Even our nurse practitioner sent an e-mail to all faculty worning then that many students might not make it to class!

You don't have the flu. You have a stomach virus. The REAL flu does not affect the stomach. So the shot you received in November would not protect you from something like this. Not sure why you are on antibiotics, as they would not be used for the real flu, either. Both the flu and your stomach thing are viral, not bacterial.

Hey Gary of NC,

What do the expect the Admin to do? It's an airborne virus. Maybe they could wave the magic wand if ya ask real nice!

It is quite amazing to see this. I got to Michigan Tech and we are having the same problem. EVERYONE is getting this flu. I have been lucky enough to not get it yet but I am just assuming its a matter of time. It seems to be hitting schools hard, I am assuming because we are always around other students.
