The common cold is caused by a variety of viruses. Unlike the flu, it typically presents with milder symptoms and is less likely to cause a fever.

Preventing the Common Cold

While there's no vaccine for the common cold, you can significantly lower your risk of getting sick and prevent its spread by practicing good hygiene:

• Wash your hands frequently and consistently.
• Avoid touching your eyes, mouth, and nose with unwashed hands.
• Avoid close contact with others who may be sick.
