Stay warm and rest

Needless hiding. The hectic life to which we are forced does not even allow us to get sick. We don't have time! And so, even if we have a cold and fever, we throw down some medication and go to work. But it shouldn't be like that! Our body needs to stop and rest. There is no more effective remedy that staying a few days at home, warm, to rest, to leave our body the time necessary to recover from the influenza attacks.
