The term influenza has its origins in 15th-century Italy, where the cause of the disease was ascribed to unfavourable astrological influences. Evolution in medical thought led to its modification to influenza del freddo, meaning "influence of the cold." The word "influenza" was first attested in English in 1743 when it was borrowed during an outbreak of the disease in Europe. Archaic terms for influenza include epidemic catarrh, grippe (from the French grippe, meaning flu; sometimes spelled "grip" or "gripe"), sweating sickness, and Spanish fever (particularly for the 1918 pandemic strain).

Once your doctor says you have the flu, you can start taking these steps to feel better: Rest in bed or on the couch. Drink lots of liquids, like water, chicken broth, and other fluids. Take the medicine your mom or dad gives you to ease your fever, aches, and pains. Tell your mom or dad if you have trouble breathing, your muscles really hurt, or if you feel confused. These are signs you may need to see the doctor again. Most of the time, you'll feel better in a week or two. Until then, you'll have to stay home from school and take it easy. We hope you're flu-free this year, but if you do get the flu, now you know what to do!
