    Health & Medicine on Khan Academy: No organ quite symbolizes love like the heart. One reason may be that your heart helps you live, by moving ~5 liters (1.3 gallons) of blood through almost 100,000 kilometers (62,000 miles) of blood vessels every single minute! It has to do this all day, everyday, without ever taking a vacation! Now that is true love. Learn about how the heart works, how blood flows through the heart, where the blood goes after it leaves the heart, and what your heart is doing when it makes the sound “Lub Dub.”

    Today (Feb2018) I have Influenza B and I am heavily congested, random chills and low grade fever.
    Both times I was advised to stay home for 5 days!!

    Very informative video, thanks! I don't know if anyone can relate but in my case it started with runny nose, then it continued up with sore throat. Then it felt like it slowly went down windpipe and stopped right in the middle of my throat. That was the time when I felt this annoying tickly feeling in there which made me dry cough from time to time. Then it went down to my upper chest and made me cough afterwards which was accompanied with chest pain and burning sensations afterwards. No fever/chills/overall weakness whatsoever but at first I thought I had pheumonia and I was really scared cause I never really experienced anything like this before. We called a doctor. after cheking my throat/lungs she told me I had type C seasonal virus and it shall go away it by itself in a few days. She suggested me tons of fluids as well as inhalation 3 times a day. Well thankfully my cough has almost dissapeared and I don't have any sore throat/pain either but that burning sensation in my chest is still there and it's freaking me out lol 😆 also, I can breathe freely and I have no fever whatsoever. But I'm still cautious. Don't take this viruses lightly guys😀 if you're in doubt see your doctor right away ^_^
