Posted: Nov 12, 2009 - Children are more likely than older adults to have their health jeopardized by H1N1 flu, however most children who come down with the flu will have relatively mild symptoms and not require testing or treatment. However special attention needs to be paid to children with existing health problems and to otherwise healthy children who develop certain symptoms. Tests available here often do not detect flu infections so when fever and cough or sore throat are present, it should be treated as influenza. So children with flu symptoms and conditions that put them at increased risk or with the additional symptoms listed below should always be treated with antiviral drugs.
