A member asked:
My daughter has a high fever and half her class has swine flu, so it looks like she's getting it as well. should i just give her tamiflu?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: I would recommend only if she tests positive for influenza. Other viral infections can produce flu-like symptoms as well.
