Nurse practitioners Nicole Baldwin and Kelli White share crucial insights on preventing and treating RSV, flu, and other respiratory illnesses during this intense illness season. They examine current symptom patterns, effective prevention strategies, and post-exposure protocols based on their clinical experiences.

• Current flu strain presenting with high fever, fatigue, and body aches rather than vomiting
• Lysol products don't kill RSV - bleach, vinegar solutions, or medical-grade wipes needed
• Secondary bacterial infections occurring 7-10 days after initial viral infection
• Antimicrobial mouthwash and tongue scraping as effective preventive measures
• Vitamin D, C, zinc, elderberry, and possibly coffee as immune-boosting supplements
• Balance rest with movement to prevent pneumonia development during recovery
• Start antivirals within 48 hours of symptom onset for maximum effectiveness
• Partners of flu-positive patients should receive prophylactic Tamiflu treatment
