Frequently Asked Questions: Who should get rapid flu testing in Mesa? Rapid testing is recommended for anyone experiencing sudden onset of classic flu symptoms (fever over 100°F, extreme fatigue, body aches, and headache), especially during the late fall and winter flu season. It is also highly recommended for individuals in high-risk groups (e.g., those over 65, young children, pregnant women, or those with chronic medical conditions). Getting tested quickly is the key to accessing time-sensitive antiviral medication. What is the difference between Influenza A and B? Both A and B are serious respiratory illnesses that can cause seasonal epidemics. Influenza A is generally associated with the majority of large flu epidemics and can also cause global pandemics. Influenza B typically circulates only among humans and usually causes milder outbreaks.
