William : I understood your point of view the first time. Thanks. Here up north, flu symptoms are a very common thing during winter and we can't pay ourselves the lux of staying home every time our nose is runny a little bit.

flu medication

The question was not should I take part to a competition, it was about flu medication and side effects.
