How to prevent the flu for an 8-year-old child?

Patient's question:

The child is 88 years old. There has been an outbreak of influenza in the school, with students experiencing fever, even high fever. Some classes have already been closed. If my child wants to prevent this flu, are there any medications available for prevention?

Doctor's answer:

At this point, if you want to prevent work-related flu, the best you can do is to wash your hands frequently and always keep the air in your home circulating. There is no medication available to prevent work-related illness. The flu is at its worst from December to February each year. The most effective preventive measure is to get vaccinated with the flu vaccine every October, which can protect you for the entire year. The above is my suggestion on this issue, hoping it helps you. Wishing you good health!
