How long does it take for a cold to germinate? One of my colleagues at work accused me of giving her my cold. I worked with her on Tuesday, Wed. and Thurs. and her cold started on the following Monday. I think that's too soon.
Ive caught my sons cold.....and he has been germy for three days. My chest is on bloody fire.....and worse still I can't have a fag! So yes....two to five days is about right. Kill them......! X
I actually didn't realise that they were caught so quickly. However, you can't have a day off because you've got a cold, can you? It sounds so pathetic. 'I'm not coming in today because I have a cold.'
