On investigating usage via PubMed, it appears flu-like syndrome is an alternate name for influenza-like illness. Merge Flu-like syndrome into this article? --Una Smith (talk) 05:04, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Tim Vickers (talk) 19:54, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ya. Sounds appropriate.--ZayZayEM (talk) 10:17, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. --Una Smith (talk) 14:28, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to see more citations here, but particularly the claim that allergic reactions are less common than the cold. I'm not sure this is the case, so please provide evidence for any claim. This is a medical science page, there should be lots to use. Cheers 125.239.128.58 (talk) 04:26, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
