Hi Bobby,

All I can say is try to stop any sort of any contamination. Make sure dad uses tissue when sneezeing or coughoing and flush the tissue down the loo its so that tissues arent left lieing around.

Make sure he doesnt prepare any food or drinks for you and if he does go in the kitchen try and be sure hes not sneezing and coughing everywhere.

Avoid close contact with him for the time being

Make sure his toothbrush is away from yours as this could be a cause of bugs transfuring to yours.

Also having the windows open in the morning after a night sleep clears the air.

Make sure he and everyone washes their hands in hot soapy water. you dont have to have flu to be a carrier.

Yes I think its a good idea to avoid putting your hands anywhere near your face.

Sounds a bit mean I know but I would rather do this than catch the flu.

Take are

Make an urgent appointment to see your asthma nurse and ask her to sort it for you. She can get the approval of one of the doctors and give it to you there and then.

Good luck - and take care
