COVID cases are on the rise and, although it is milder this time around thanks to our improved immunity and vaccines, individuals must still take precautions to avoid infection and transmission. While this surge still remains relatively low compared to others, taking preventative measures is always a good idea. Here is everything you need to know about the new strain and how to protect your family. <\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n<\/div>
\n

COVID cases are on the rise with new strain, FLiRT <\/h3>\n<\/div>
\n\n<\/div>
\n

With the nickname FLiRT, this strain is now the most dominant one in the U.S. It evolved from the omicron strain, and although most symptoms remain the same, there are some new ones, including gastrointestinal effects, to be on the lookout for: <\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n<\/div>
\n
    \n
  • Cough <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>
    \n\n<\/div>
    \n
      \n
    • Fiebre <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>
      \n\n<\/div>
      \n
        \n
      • Sore throat <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>
        \n\n<\/div>
        \n
          \n
        • Chills <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>
          \n\n<\/div>
          \n
            \n
          • Fatiga <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>
            \n\n<\/div>
            \n
              \n
            • Runny nose <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>
              \n\n<\/div>
              \n
                \n
              • Nausea <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>
                \n\n<\/div>
                \n
                  \n
                • Vomiting <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>
                  \n\n<\/div>
                  \n
                    \n
                  • Diarrhea <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>
                    \n\n<\/div>
                    \n

                    Unlike the flu, which typically spikes from October through May, COVID can have surges any time of year  <\/h4>\n<\/div>
                    \n\n<\/div>
                    \n

                    Thus, it is important to continue using basic precautions such as: handwashing, staying up to date on vaccinations, getting fresh air, and staying home when sick. And with kids returning to school, we know that germs will be brought home right alongside homework. Make sure to keep your kids in the know about how to keep themselves healthy while they are with their friends!  <\/p>\n<\/div>

                    \n\n<\/div>
                    \n

                    What happens if you get a positive test? <\/h4>\n<\/div>
                    \n\n<\/div>
                    \n

                    Symptoms should be present for about 24 hours prior to testing for COVID and before getting help at an urgent care or provider\u2019s office. However, if you find yourself facing down a positive result, your provider can help you navigate next steps. Make sure to keep track of your symptoms. Like the flu, COVID will be contagious one to two days before symptoms arise and a few days after they subside.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
