Ever wondered when it’s actually safe to rejoin the world after being sick? Here’s the quick rundown: For flu, cold, COVID, RSV, strep, and whooping cough, you’re usually most contagious while you have symptoms (especially fever). Wait until you’re fever-free for 24 hours (without meds) and feeling better before seeing people. Antibiotics for strep and whooping cough speed things up, but for most viruses, patience (and masking) is key. Save this for the next time you’re stuck at home! #Health #BodyHealth #healthtips
