What to Do When Your Child Gets Sick With a Virus

Childhood cold and flu is very common - if you are a parent to young children, it may even feel as though they are always bringing viruses home from daycare, from the playground, or from school.

In the videos below, Dr. Yvette Lu, a doctor and parent in Surrey-North Delta offers helpful tips for parents.
