2. State Licensing Requirements
The M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers are licensed and comply with the

regulations and standards. These standards relate to the child care facility, staff,
health, safety procedures, nutrition, care giver to child ratios, and record keeping.
The M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers are all subject to inspection by state and
city health, fire, and licensing officials.
3. Termination Policy
The first two weeks will be regarded as a trial period, in which case either party
may terminate the contract without notice. After the first two weeks of
enrollment, one month written notice from parent or provider is
required to terminate the contract, with the exception of gross misconduct
on part of the provider, parent, or child. These are grounds for immediate
discontinuation of service. In cases of non-payment, legal action may be taken, and
the parents will pay all legal fees incurred.
1
4. Child Care Center Hours
The M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers are open Monday through Friday, from
7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (depending on the school site). The Centers will follow
the M-DCPS calendar year. Please see Appendices.

5. Payment Policy
The M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Center fees for the 2011-2012 year are $150.00
per week for full time child care, $75.00 per week for half day child care and $40
per day for part-time child care. Payments is due on the first Monday of
of the bi-weekly service period. The Bi-weekly Payment Schedule is included in
the Appendices.
Failure to make payments prior to the service periods requires that the student
be withdrawn from the M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Center. A sample letter is
included in the registration packet to be used to communicate fee collection
information to the parents. Parents must pay separate fees for food services
based on the child’s free/reduced lunch status.
2

Non-Sufficient Checks (NSF)
Any checks returned for non-sufficient funds will not be re-deposited. Within 24
hours of notification, cash for the check amount and any bank service charges
must be paid or your child will be withdrawn from the center.

Registration Fee
A non-refundable registration fee is due at time of enrollment. A child's placement
is not secured until both the registration and the signed Enrollment application is
submitted. The non-refundable registration fee for the 2011-2012 year is $150.00
per child. The registration fee is due at the time of registration.
6. Attendance/Lateness
If the child will not be attending child care due to illness or other reason, please
inform the Center Director as soon as possible. Discounts will not be given for
children’s absences, regardless of the reason.
Daily attendance will be maintained in an Attendance Roster, as well as the MDCPS Infant and Toddler Center registration card. If the child is picked up after
5:00 p.m. there will be a late charge assessed of $1.00 for every one minute
(unless prior arrangements have been made).

Arrival/Dismissal
All children must be brought to the classroom by their parents and signed in and
out on a daily basis. Family members, parents, guardian or other designees must
be listed on the emergency contact card to be preapproved for drop off and pick
up. If there is an exception, please be sure to notify the Center as soon as
possible. In that case, the person picking up the child will be required to present
a picture ID, before the child is released. If there is a court order prohibiting a
parent or other family member from the child, written notification from the
custodial parent must be kept on file in the M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Center.
Please send the child clean, dressed and breakfast fed, with necessary supplies for
the day. Please do not send half eaten breakfasts, breakfast bars, candy or gum
with the children.
7. Insurance
Upon registering the child, it is mandatory to obtain the student accident
insurance issued through the school district. No child may attend the M-DCPS
Infant and Toddler Centers without this insurance. This is a supplemental
insurance plan and it is required even if you already have family or individual
3
medical insurance coverage. This supplemental insurance plan DOES NOT take
the place of family or individual medical insurance coverage. It is your
responsibility to become familiar with any insurance limitations and other
information provided in the brochure.
Insurance must be purchased online at www.K12StudentInsurance.com, and proof
of the purchase must be printed and presented at time of registration. No child
can begin care at the program without this insurance.
8. Health Issues
For the health and safety of all of the children in the M-DCPS Infant and Toddler
Centers, please do not bring any child to the Center sick. Children with mild cold
like symptoms that are otherwise feeling and acting well can attend the Center.
Mild cold-like symptoms include clear runny nose, slight cough, and fever. If you
are not sure if the child should be brought to the Center, please call and check
with Center staff. If a child becomes ill during child care center hours, the
parents will be contacted to pick up the child. Parents need to pick up their
children within one hour of being notified. If parents are not available, the
emergency contact person will be notified. Once the child is removed from the
M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Center due to illness, they may not return to the
Center until symptoms requiring removal are no longer present.
9.
Exclusion From Child Care
A child with any of the following illnesses must be completely free of any
symptoms before returning to the M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Center. If the child
is taking antibiotics for an illness, the child may return after the initial 24 hours of
beginning antibiotics as long as he or she has a slight to no fever (under 100F
under the arm), is no longer contagious, and is otherwise feeling well enough to
participate in the daily schedule. Signs of illness include the following; unusual
lethargy, irritability, persistent crying for no reason, runny nose (more than clear),
cough (more than slight), difficulty breathing, diarrhea, vomiting, mouth sores,
rashes (note from doctor stating non-contagious is ok), pink eye, chicken pox,
mumps, measles, hepatitis A, impetigo, lice, ringworm, scabies, strep throat,
scarlet fever, tuberculosis, shingles, and any other contagious disease or rash.
Any child with a fever of 100 degrees or above, orally (in the mouth), or
axillary (under the arm), may not attend child care. State law requires
that parents be notified if any child attending the Center has been exposed to
certain contagious diseases. Written notification will be provided to all parents.
4
10. Medication (Board Policy 5330)
Please see Appendices for the School Board Policy (5330) on administering
medication to children/students in the schools. It also applies to the M-DCPS
Infant and Toddler Centers located in Miami Dade County Public Schools.
11. Field Trips
Field trips will be occasionally conducted as part of the program activities for
children two years and older. These trips may include walks to the park, around
the neighborhood, fire station, or other places of interest. Notice will be
provided in advance and permission forms must be signed by the parents. Special
precautions will be implemented to ensure children’s safety. Parents and family
members are encouraged to accompany the children on the field trips. However,
all adults must complete the volunteer screening forms and be approved by
Miami- Dade County Public Schools. All chaperones must be 21 years or older.
Children not enrolled in the program may not attend the field trips.
12. State Requirement for Reporting Child Abuse
By Florida statutes, Chapters 39 and 415, all staff members must report any
suspected incidents of possible child abuse or neglect. Please note that any child
can be questioned by the Florida Department of Children & Families (FDCF)
Child Protective Services at any time without parental consent.
13. Staff Qualifications
Program oversight is provided by the M-DCPS Office of Early Childhood
Programs. The daily program operation will be supervised by the school’s
administration. Each M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Center will be staffed by an
individual with Center Director Credentials (Job Code 4248), and depending on
the number of children, two (2) to three (3) hourly paraprofessionals, with Florida
Child Care Professional Credential (FCCPC-formerly CDA) (Job Code 8009).
14. Parent Meetings/Conferences
Parent meetings/conferences are an important component in a child care and
preschool environment. The purpose of these meetings is to support the child’s
social, emotional, physical, and academic development. There will be at least two
scheduled conferences. However, if a parent has a concern or needs to speak
with the Center Director or School Administrator, a meeting can be scheduled.
5
15. Uniform Policy
Children over two (2) years of age must wear uniforms based on the colors of
the school site the M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers are located. Center staff
will provide information on where they can be purchased. Although the use of
uniforms is not mandatory for children under two (2) years of age, parents are
welcomed to either purchase or have uniforms made for their children. All
children need an extra set of labeled clothing left at the Center, kept in marked
zip lock bags.
16. Behavior Management & Discipline
Discipline of a child is achieved through patience, consistency and positive
reinforcement. At the M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers, children are taught
manners, kindness and respect for others. Expectations and rules are also clearly
explained and repeated throughout the day. If a child is old enough to understand
the rules and does not follow them and exhibits inappropriate behavior (hitting,
aggression, etc.), hurts others, or property, the following developmentally
appropriate guidance techniques will be used. These techniques are as follows:
1. Positive Reinforcement: The child will be encouraged when he or she is
demonstrating acceptable behavior.
2. Redirection: The child is redirected to another activity and given an
opportunity to try again at another time.
3. Time-Out: The child is separated from the group for an age appropriate
amount of time (one minute per one year of age). This technique is only
used when a child repeatedly does not follow directions, exhibits temper
tantrum type behaviors, or hurts himself or others.
4. Last Resort: When a child's behavior is continually disruptive or dangerous
to others, a meeting will be held with the parents. If the problems cannot be
resolved, other child care arrangements will be made.
17. Classroom Visits
Parents may visit the M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers at various times
throughout the day. However, to avoid disruption in the Center and the learning
process, it is preferred that visits are scheduled.
18. Snacks & Meals
Good nutrition is necessary for children to develop healthy bodies and minds and
is vital to their overall health, development and education. Free breakfast will be
provided to all children through the School Breakfast Program (SBP) and free or
reduced lunch will be provided through the National School Lunch Program
(NSLP) administered by the Department of Education-Food and Nutrition
6
Division. Families not eligible for free or reduced lunch, can either purchase the
school lunch or provide lunch for their children. All snacks are provided by the
parents. Please note that snacks and meals must be labeled, sealed and put in a
lunch pack/bag. If a child has any particular dietary issue resulting from being a
vegetarian, or having allergies, religious beliefs, or non-religious beliefs, please
inform the Center staff. If applicable, please provide a doctor's note indicating
such. Infants need to be provided with either breast milk or formula and baby
food. A feeding schedule for parents to review daily will be provided by the MDCPS Infant and Toddler Centers.
19. Curriculum
The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC)
endorsed curricula, High Scope Infant-Toddler or Creative Curriculum, will be
used with all age groups, depending on the school site. These developmentally
appropriate approaches provide active learning experiences, with flexible
schedules, routines and supportive adult-child interactions. These programs are
highly effective in fostering learning, initiative and a sense of self in young children
and address each child’s needs at their developmental level, focusing on
enhancing independence and creative problem solving. Children learn best
through direct, hands-on experiences with people, objects, events, and
ideas. During this active learning process, infants and toddlers are encouraged to
discover the world around them by exploring and playing. Learning and
development are anchored by long-term, trusting relationships with caregivers,
who are close at hand to support the children as they play. Adults scaffold further
learning as they interact with children throughout the day. Ongoing professional
development and technical assistance will be provided by the Office of Early
Childhood Programs.
 Cultural Traditions
Cultural and family traditions are a part of a child’s life and learning experiences.
Therefore, many cultural events are incorporated into the curriculum. Families
are invited to share cultural traditions enjoyed at home and family celebrations.
However, if you prefer that your child be excused from any particular activity or
celebration, please notify the Center Director.
 Outdoor activities
Weather permitting, outdoor play will be part of the daily schedule. These
activities may include the following: climbing, sliding, jumping, running, balls, jump
rope, racing, water balloons, parachute, bubbles, follow the leader, ride-on toys,
wagons, tunnels, safe water toys, various games, water table, painting,
neighborhood walks, exploring nature/weather, etc.
7
 Toys
The M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers have well organized, separate, age
appropriate toys for the infant and toddler classes. Infants will not be allowed to
be around or play with small objects and toys. During the initial adjustment period
children can bring something from home with them; a special blanket, toy, or
teddy can be very comforting. Photos of family members, neighbors and pets can
be left at the Center to help remind the child of familiar people if he or she feels
lonely during the day. However, please do not bring toys to the Center except on
designated sharing/show and tell days. Please note that toy weapons should never
be brought to the M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers.
20. Diaper Policy
It is the parent's responsibility to provide diapers, wipes, and diaper cream for
their child. Each child has his or her own clearly labeled diaper bin, either in the
infant/younger toddler room or older toddler/preschooler room, depending on
the age of the child. Diapers are checked frequently and changed every three
hours or more often, if required. The diaper changing tables are cleaned and
disinfected between each diaper change, and hand washing of child care provider
and child is performed after each diaper change.
21. Toilet Training
Potty training is encouraged as long as the child is ready (typically between two
and three years of age). The initial training needs to be done at home for at least
two weeks with success before it can be effectively started at the M-DCPS Infant
and Toddler Centers. Parents will be required to supply pull-ups and wipes.
Children will be allowed to come to the Centers in cotton training
pants/underwear after they have been accident free for at least two weeks in pullups. Communication between parents and the Centers is imperative for a
successful transition from diapers to toilet.
22. Parent Supplies
Parents are responsible for supplying the following items: diapers/pull-ups, wipes,
diaper creams, tooth brush, weather appropriate clothes and a change of clothes,
jacket, shoes that lace-up or Velcro and/or stay on feet (no flip-flops, please),
pacifier (if needed), and a swimsuit. Sunscreen is applied every day to any child
playing outside. For the older children sleeping on a mat: a crib sheet, a blanket,
and a pillow are needed. If necessary a comfort object for rest time, is permitted.
Children’s crib sheets, blankets and pillows should be taken home every Friday
and washed and returned to the M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers the
following Monday. Children will get dirty throughout the day because of food,
paint, markers, dirt, bubbles, etc.; therefore, please dress your child accordingly
8
for play. The M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers are not responsible for
replacing stained or soiled clothing. It is highly recommended that children’s
names are written on the tags of their clothing, especially socks and underwear, in
order to prevent any clothing mix-ups.
Please check the child's cubby periodically to ensure that he or she has all of the
necessary items required at the Centers. As the weather changes throughout the
year, so do the items needed by children.
23. Nap Time
Infants and toddlers sleep in separate areas or rooms. The infants sleep in
provider provided cribs, and the toddlers sleep on mats. The goal is to have the
two different age groups (24 months and older, younger than 24 months) sleeping
on the same afternoon nap schedule. Generally, children 18 months and younger
will take a morning nap as well, moving toward a one nap a day schedule when
they are between 12 and 18 months. Children will never be forced to sleep;
however, they are encouraged to remain quiet and on their mat during this time.
For the older, toddler age children, sleeping on mats, please send a crib sheet,
pillow and blanket that can be kept at the Centers.
 Daily Baby Sheets
For infants 18 months and younger, parents will receive a daily baby sheet. This
sheet will list when the child was given a bottle (when applicable), what they ate
and drank, when diapers were changed, their nap schedule, and any other
pertinent information.
24. Daily Schedule
The M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers follow a developmentally appropriate
daily schedule. Actual times and activities may vary depending on the time of the
year, weather, age and developmental level of the children. Age appropriate
activities are scheduled with flexibility in order to respond to the needs of each
individual child and their stage of development.
25. Emergency Procedures
The M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers follow the M-DCPS plan for
emergencies. In the event of an emergency closing during the school day, parents
will be notified by phone. Parents are asked to pick up their children within one
hour of being notified of the emergency. It is vital that parents stay tuned to radio,
television and internet advisories for information on school closings due to
inclement weather or other emergencies.
9
Fire drills are conducted once a month at various times of the day. The M-DCPS
Infant and Toddler Centers follow the school’s fire drill schedule and emergency
plans. Teachers will practice fire drill procedures with the children.
 Medical Emergencies
Emergency information is kept on file in the M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers.
In case of illness or injury, this information will be used to notify the parent or the
person designated by the parent, of the child's status. If the child is injured while
at the Center, first aid will be administered. If treatment by a doctor is necessary,
every effort will be made to contact the parent or the doctor on the emergency
card.
In the event of a severe emergency, the M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers will
call 911, notify the parents and the school administration. In all cases, an injury
report will be completed, and a copy will be given to the parents as well as the
Florida Department of Children and Families (FDCF). Authorization for
emergency treatment must be signed at the time of enrollment to ensure that in
the event of an emergency, your child receives the necessary emergency
treatment he or she needs. It is very important that all emergency contact
information is up to date and correct. Please inform the Center immediately of
any changes. Parents are responsible for all costs involved in emergency medical
treatment, including emergency transportation, if required.
26. Communication
Good communication is an important component of a quality child care center.
Therefore, if you do not understand something, have a concern, or you feel
uncomfortable with one or more of the policies and/or procedures outlined in
the Parent Handbook, it is vital that you speak with the Center Director for
further clarification.
Strong home-school communication ensures that children will benefit from their
early childhood experiences and develop to his/her full potential. Parent/Teacher
communication will be accomplished via parent meetings, parent memos, monthly
calendars, informal arrival and dismissal information, and special occasion
gatherings.
27. Contract Compliance
Please keep your Parent Handbook accessible so you can periodically review the
M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers’ policies and procedures, as necessary. The
M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers reserve the right to amend any portion of
10
the Parent Handbook at any time. If and when a change is made, parents will be
notified and provided with a copy.
Please note that each M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Center will have their own
individualized Parent Policy Handbook with specific child care hours, schedules
and activities for their sites. You must also sign and adhere to their policies.
11
By signing the M-DCPS Infant and Toddler Centers Parent
Handbook, the parent(s)/legal guardian(s) agree to abide by
the policies and procedures described. The provider may
amend the policies and procedures by giving the
parent(s)/guardian(s) a copy of the new or modified policies at
least one (1) week before they go into effect.

Whose Child Is This
"Whose child is this?" I asked one day
Seeing a little one out at play
"Mine", said the parent with a tender smile
"Mine to keep a little while
To bathe his hands and comb his hair
To tell him what he is to wear
To prepare him that he may always be good
And each day do the things he should"
"Whose child is this?" I asked again
As the door opened and someone came in
"Mine", said the teacher with the same tender smile
"Mine, to keep just for a little while
To teach him how to be gentle and kind
To train and direct his dear little mind
To help him live by every rule
And get the best he can from school"
"Whose child is this?" I ask once more
Just as the little one entered the door
"Ours" said the parent and the teacher as they smiled
And each took the hand of the little child
"Ours to love and train together
Ours this blessed task forever."

How can I protect my child
from the flu?
A flu vaccine is the best way to protect against
the flu. Because the flu virus changes year
to year, annual vaccination against the flu is
recommended. The CDC recommends that all
children from the ages of 6 months up to their
19th birthday receive a flu vaccine every fall or
winter (children receiving a vaccine for the first
time require two doses). You also can protect
your child by receiving a flu vaccine yourself.
What can I do to prevent the
spread of germs?
The main way that the flu spreads is in respiratory
droplets from coughing and sneezing. This can
happen when droplets from a cough or sneeze of an
infected person are propelled through the air and
infect someone nearby. Though much less frequent,
the flu may also spread through indirect contact with
contaminated hands and articles soiled with nose and
throat secretions. To prevent the spread of germs:
• Wash hands often with soap
and water.
• Cover mouth/nose during
coughs and sneezes. If
you don’t have a tissue,
cough or sneeze into your
upper sleeve, not your
hands.
• Limit contact with people
who show signs of illness.
• Keep hands away from the
face. Germs are often
spread when a person
touches something that is
contaminated with germs
and then touches his or
her eyes, nose, or mouth.
When should my child
stay home from child care?
A person may be contagious and able to spread
the virus from 1 day before showing symptoms
to up to 5 days after getting sick. The time frame
could be longer in children and in people who don’t
fight disease well (people with weakened immune
systems). When sick, your child should stay at home
to rest and to avoid giving the flu to other children and
should not return to child care or other group setting
until his or her temperature has been normal and has
been sign and symptom free for a period of 24 hours.

your child, visit: http://www.cdc.gov/flu/ or http://www.immunizeflorida.org/

What is the influenza (flu) virus?
Influenza (“the flu”) is caused by a virus which
infects the nose, throat, and lungs. According to
the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC), the flu is more dangerous than the common
cold for children. Unlike the common cold, the
flu can cause severe illness and life threatening
complications in many people. Children under 5 who
have the flu commonly need medical care. Severe flu
complications are most common in children younger
than 2 years old. Flu season can begin as early as
October and last as late as May.
How can I tell if my child has a cold,
or the flu?
Most people with the flu feel tired and have fever,
headache, dry cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy
nose, and sore muscles. Some people, especially
children, may also have stomach problems and
diarrhea. Because the flu and colds have similar
symptoms, it can be difficult to tell the difference
between them based on symptoms alone. In
general, the flu is worse than the common cold,
and symptoms such as fever, body aches, extreme
tiredness, and dry cough are more common and
intense. People with colds are more likely to have a
runny or stuffy nose. Colds generally do not result
in serious health problems, such as pneumonia,
bacterial infections, or hospitalizations.

el cuidado infantil les proporcionen a
los padres la información detallando las
causas, síntomas, y transmisión del virus
de la influenza (la gripe) cada año durante

¿Qué debo hacer si mi hijo se
enferma?
Consulte con su médico y asegúrese de que su
hijo obtenga suficiente descanso y que beba
muchos líquidos. No le dé nunca aspirina, o
medicinas que contengan aspirina, a niños o
adolescentes que puedan tener la gripe.
¿Qué puedo hacer para prevenir
la transmisión de gérmenes?
• T

largo tiempo
• Tiene problemas para respirar o respira rápido
• Tiene la piel que luce azul
• No está bebiendo lo suficiente
• Parece estar confundido, no se despierta, no
quiere ser tenido en brazos, o tiene convulsiones
(se sacude sin control)
• Se mejora, pero luego se pone peor otra vez
• Padece de otras condiciones (como enfermedades del corazón o de los pulmones, diabetes)
que se ponen peor
La manera principal en que
se
propaga la gripe es en las
gotitas respiratorias que
se producen al toser o
estornudar. Esto puede
suceder cuando las
gotitas de la tos o
un estornudo de una
persona infectada son
propulsadas a través del
aire e infectan a alguien
cercano. Aunque es mucho
menos frecuente, la gripe
también se puede transmitir a
través de contacto indirecto con manos contaminadas
y artículos ensuciados por las secreciones de la
garganta y nariz. Para prevenir la transmisión de
gérmenes:
• Lávese las manos a menudo con agua y jabón.
• Cúbrase la boca /nariz mientras tose o
estornuda. Si Usted no tiene un pañuelo
desechable, tosa o estornude en la parte superior
de la manga, no en sus manos.
• Limite el contacto con personas que muestren
señales de enfermedad.
• Mantenga sus manos alejadas de su rostro. Los
gérmenes a menudo se transmiten cuando una
persona toca algo que está contaminado con
gérmenes y luego se toca sus ojos, nariz, o boca.

hijo de la gripe?

Una vacuna contra la gripe es la mejor manera
de protegerlo contra la gripe. Como el virus de

Enfermedades) recomienda que todas los
niños desde la edad de 6 meses hasta su 19no.
cumpleaños reciban la vacuna de la gripe cada
otoño o invierno (los niños que reciban la vacuna
por primera vez requieren dos dosis). Usted
también puede proteger a su niño recibiendo
Usted mismo la vacuna de la gripe.
Una persona puede ser contagiosa y capaz de transmitir el virus desde 1 día antes de mostrar síntomas
hasta 5 días después de enfermarse. El período de
tiempo puede ser mayor en niños o personas que
no combaten bien las enfermedades (personas con
sistemas inmunes débiles). Cuando esté enfermo, su
hijo debe quedarse en casa para descansar y evitar
transmitirle la gripe a otros niños y no debe regresar a
la guardería infantil o a otro ambiente de grupo hasta
que la temperatura de él o ella haya estado normal y
haya estado libre de síntomas y signos por un período
de 24 horas.

La Influenza
Influenza
¿Qué es el virus de la influenza
(gripe)?
La influenza (“la gripe”) es causada por un virus
que infecta la nariz, la garganta, y los pulmones.
De acuerdo al Centro de Control y Prevención de
Enfermedades de los Estados Unidos (CDC), la gripe
es más peligrosa para los niños que el resfrío común.
Distinto al resfrío común, la gripe puede causar
enfermedad severa y complicaciones que ponen en
riesgo la vida a muchas personas. Los niños menores
de 5 años de edad que tienen la gripe suelen necesitar
atenciones médicas. Las complicaciones severas de la
gripe son más comunes en niños menores de 2 años
de edad. La temporada de la gripe puede iniciar tan
temprano como el mes de Octubre y durar hasta tan
tarde como Mayo.
¿Cómo puedo saber si mi hijo tiene
un resfrío, o si tiene la gripe?
La mayoría de las personas con la gripe se sienten
cansadas y tienen fiebre, dolor de cabeza, tos seca,
dolor de garganta, nariz congestionada o nariz
con secreciones, y músculos adoloridos. Algunas
personas, en especial niños, pueden también tener
problemas estomacales y diarrea. Como la gripe y el
resfrío común tienen síntomas similares, puede ser
difícil diferenciarlos en base a sólo los síntomas. En
general, la gripe es peor que el resfriado común, y los
síntomas tales como la fiebre, los dolores corporales,
la fatiga extrema, y la tos seca son más comunes e
intensos. Las personas con resfríos más comúnmente
tienen secreciones nasales o congestión nasal. Los
resfríos generalmente no resultan en problemas
de salud serios, tales como neumonía, infecciones
bacterianas, u hospitalizaciones.
