A member asked:

When does the flu stop being contagious ? after hoe many days from symptoms resolving ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

About 7 days: According to the CDC usually you can spread flu about 7 days after you start experiencing symptoms. Longer if you are a child. The CDC does not give the number of day after resolving from the flu. So I would say that if you no longer have the flu and it has been 7 days since the start of the symptoms, you are likely no longer contagious.
