There is no need for you to isolate yourself from other people as long as you remain well. Not all contact with flu will result in you catching it. You are more likely to stay well than develop the flu. If you have an underlying medical condition then you should contact your GP as soon as possible if you develop symptoms of flu to discuss treatment options. People who are normally well without underlying medical conditions can manage their symptoms themselves with advice from their local pharmacist.
