If you should become ill with influenza: Self Isolate.
If possible, go home or to an off campus residence to recover.
The CDC recommends that individuals with influenza-like illness remain at one’s home, apartment or residence hall and away from other people until at least 24 hours after they are free of fever (100° F [37.8° C] or greater), or signs of a fever, without the use of fever-reducing medications. Influenza-like illness is defined as a fever plus cough and/or sore throat. If possible, residential students, faculty, or staff members who live close to the campus should return to the home of a family member or friend, to keep from making others sick. Those leaving Virginia Tech to go to a private home to recuperate should be instructed to do so in a way that limits contact with others as much as possible. For example, travel by private car or taxi would be preferable over use of public transportation.
