A member asked:

At our holiday accommodation some cleaning staff tested positive for covid. the management said that their staff are trained on this covid and wear masks all the time. a few days later me and my family all have flu symptoms, fever, sore throat etc?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Test: Get tested and inform accommodation if positive. Isolate and rest, plenty of liquids and supplements and symptom treatment as necessary. Check out Math+1 protocol from FLCCC for more suggestions and if positive work with physician to guide further care and testing.
