I'm worried because my coworker is at work with the flu, what do you suggest?

Influenza: To avoid catching the flu – wash your hands often or use alcohol – based sanitizers. Wash hands before touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Coughing or sneezing into elbow helps to contain germs. Avoid crowds of people. Some people are prescribed anticipatory antiviral meds.
