Great Apps to Help You Get Through the Flu Season

by Proforma Construction Inc, November 7, 2016

The flu season is upon us, learn about how these great apps can help you get through it–even if you get sick.

Cold and flu season is here, which means that the sniffles, cough, fevers, and everything else the flu has to offer may only be around the next corner. According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), the flu commonly peaks between the months of December and February. Handwashing, good nutrition, and plenty of sleep can go a long way, but viruses are incredibly microscopic and can sneak into our lungs when we least expect them to. While technology can’t magically cure you, it certainly can help pass the time. Here are great apps to help you get through the cold and flu season.

ZocDoc

If you dread making your own doctor’s appointments, this app may be your savior. With its easy-to-use interface, you can type in the reason for your visit, location, insurance information, and you’ll instantly be matched with quality options. You can then book your appointment directly through the app.

Sickweather

You can get a bird’s eye view of the virus’ contagion right from this useful app. It connects to your social media (after user approval) and collects data based on people’s posts and gives you a real-time view of activity in your area.

These apps won’t cure you, but they will make getting sick much more manageable which can come in handy if you live alone or have kids of your own.
