Sure. Stick yourself in an autoclave for about, oh, half an hour and that should kill those nasty flu varmints.

Chop some garlic up and put it in tomato juice... very yummy (at least I think so) and usually helps fight off colds.

LD: start taking zinc or echinacea. Don't overdo it (zinc is poisonous in large doses and/or if you build up too much of it over time). But it will reduce the duration and severity of a cold for most people.
Chicken soup is the other weapon in my arsenal.

I had a doctor recommend cold ease. She said it was the most palatable way to take Zinc, and that studies did show that it shortened a cold by a few days.

I performed in "Camelot," with a terrible cold, hardly any voice, and a slight fever. We had three shows in two days. And that was just that weekend. I then had two days to recover before the next performance. We had eight performances total.
Trust me, whatever it is, it can be done!
Water was my drug that week. I carried a bottle everywhere I went.
