This is very common these days it being common to have colds and flu. And what I believe to be most common remedy to this is GARGLING WITH WARM WATER AND SALT.
How come this is helping cure a sore throat. Is it the warm water? Or is it the salt?
People tend to believe that getting wet in a drizzle or rain may result to having colds. Is that true?
Then how come those in the north and south poles don't get to have colds?! That is because the virus cannot tolerate the high temperature. And no matter how wet they become, they don't get the colds.
Therefore, in connection to the question above, it is not the rain that gives you the virus...you get the virus because your immune system has been compromised when you got wet and since the virus is tolerating the temperature you are in, it runs towards you and you got no shield to it thus accepts them with open arms. So what you need to do is to make sure that you are resistant to them by being in good health. If not, avoid possible culprits to lowering your immune system more like getting drenched!

As the summer start to wave goodbye and the rainy season fast approaching, it is either you thank the heavens that we finally are off the hook with heat strokes, chicken pox, measles and other dry season related diseases or say a prayer to spare us with the wet season diseases.
One of those common ailments that children and adult alike get during the rainy season here in the tropics is the Flu. Not only would the one infected have the common colds but so with high grade fever, muscular pains and headaches. Let us not believe in the old age notion of getting it from being drenched with rain, but be informed that the rain in itself does not cause it but of the virus infection that beats you after compromising your immune system with being wet.
The thing to do then is to be in good health for our body to fight the said infection that is airborne. Ensure with enough rest and sleep, vitamins and minerals through food especially vitamin C and proper hygiene and cleanliness at all times. Hand washing still is helpful in avoiding transmission.
This applies as well in avoiding the most common flu that is creating scare to most, the AH1N1 virus.
