Rhode Island Director of Health Jerry Larkin is urging residents to take precautions to prevent the spread of common respiratory viruses over the holidays. If you plan to attend gatherings and begin feeling sick, stay home to avoid infecting others. Those experiencing flu-like symptoms like a stuffy nose or fever should also isolate for at least 24 hours after their symptoms subside. For more information, visit health-dot-ri-dot-gov.
