There are FOUR hideous viruses this winter that can turn deadly. Here doctors reveal what you must know to protect your family from the quad-demic

Daily Mail  

We are all too familiar with the term 'pandemic', but experts fear Britain could be facing a 'quad-demic' this winter – with a surge in cases of four winter bugs, each capable of leaving us bedbound – hitting all at once. But experts fear the numbers infected with flu, Covid and respiratory syncytial virus, a bug which usually causes a mild cold or cough but can also lead to severe pneumonia, will also soar in the coming weeks as colder weather forces more of us indoors, allowing viruses to sp As well as leaving many people feeling awful, it could result in excess winter pressure on the NHS from extra workload and staff sickness. Experts fear the numbers infected with flu, Covid and respiratory syncytial virus will soar in the coming weeks In January, at the peak of the winter bug season, there were 688 patients in hospital each day with severe norovirus, almost 4,000 with Covid and 2,226 with flu, according to NHS England figures. Professor Riley says if patients vaccinated against Covid do still pick up the infection, it usually appears as a mild upper respiratory tract infection – making it hard to distinguish from flu or a cold. 'If during that time you get exposed to a second virus – let's say, flu – there's no inflammation in the airways to stop it and it's also more likely to infect your respiratory tract because you're still suffering damage there from the Covid infection.'
