I am 13, and babysit for a 3 year-old boy. I got a message from his mom saying that he has a highly contagious viral infection. I have a fever, sore throat, and cold symptoms. What could the infection be?

the flu. i am pretty sure.
I just got back from the Dr. with my 2 year old, and she was tested for a bacterial infection (strep-throat) which came back negative, as a result she was diagnosed with a viral infection, which is just that a “viral infection” same symptoms that you described which last roughly 5 days.
Our Dr. explained that the viral infection is common and the way they treat a viral infection is with over-the-counter pain medicine like Tylenol or Ibuprofen for the sore throat pain and fever and also suggested popcicles or icecream if you’re having a hard time eating due to the sore throat.
If you’re concerned I would reccommend visiting a Dr. and not neccessarilly taking medical advice from anyone over the internet.

For your immune system – PLEASE try these 3 remedies…EVERY time I feel run-down or get that tickly feeling in my throat I take these 3 things and it NEVER turns into a full-blown cold.
1)Herb Pharm Olive Leaf Extract in tincture form:

2) “JarrowDophilus”, by “Jarrow Formulas”…it will keep the healthy “flora” in your body in perfect balance which keeps your immune system strong.
3) “Emergen-C” Vitamin C packets by “Alacer”
All three can be purchased at “Whole Foods Market”, possibly “Trader Joe’s”, or call your local health food store to inquire about these 3 products.
EVERY friend and family member who has taken this advice, hardly ever gets sick.
For your throat: “Peaceful Mountain–Throat Rescue”
You will NEVER find a more powerful throat spray which is all-natural….soothing, fast acting, and kills bad bacteria on contact.
Cayenne Pepper in capsules (or sprinkled on soup) helps greatly with congestion AND is also an immune systen booster too….and drink lots of organic green tea to help your energy levels.
You’ll see!!
Get well soon!
