One more thing to add, with any viral disease it is important to take rest and recovery very seriously.

Putting yourself under stress with work or excercise before you are fully recovered will do severe damage to the body. You migt feel better and even fine after 2 weeks of the flu but it's likely still an ongoing fight in your body. If put under stress, you can develop inflammation of heart tissue and I am willing to bet that this is just a single manifestation of a whole range of issues that may develop in a virus-strained body so soon after acute infection.

Attempt to take as much time as possible for recovery. The world doesn't often allow us to (work, social pressure) but nothing is worse than long-term medical issues that gnaw on you every single day.

We need to reevaluate how we treat or health. Breaking it so some company can have a tiny better bottom line at the end of the year is just not worth it. We are more productive when well rested and healthy anyways.
