Flu can be: transmitted through the air, as can colds. Both are more likely to find your body via your eyes, nose and mouth, so don't touch them without being very conscious of which part of the body does the touching (back of wrist is good) or if your hands are sanitized. Viruses can produce symptoms in a couple of days, or take four or five days. Depends on the virus and your immunity. After that, OK.
