Answers: Is it something like the first two or three days......or for the duration ie a week or two?

It will vary according to the virus responsible. I am afraid the range is probably 2-5 days.

Usually accepted as 7 days or one week whichever is the shorter.

Depends whether its man-flu or for females bird-flu!!!

Hahaha! Now come on, that was funny!!
