How Do You Get A Cold?
Cold Cause: How You Get Infected
Contrary to popular belief, common colds are not caused by cold weather. A cold is caused by viruses, most commonly rhinoviruses, that are transmitted through the air and through close contact with a cold carrier.
Cold Contraction: How Cold Viruses Spread
Viruses are inhaled through the nose or mouth and attach to the nasal lining where they multiply and spread.
Cold Symptoms
The viruses invade healthy cells in the nasal passages and cause symptoms such as: stuffy and runny nose, sore throat and scratchy throat, coughing, sneezing, aches and pains, and fever.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the common cold and the flu?
The flu (Influenza) and the common cold are both respiratory illnesses caused by viruses. Influenza is a specific type of infection caused by specific viruses, generally the Influenza A or Influenza B viruses. The common cold can be caused by hundreds of different types of viruses. The main difference is that influenza tends to cause more systemic symptoms.
| Flu symptoms include: | Common cold symptoms include: |

What are common steps to prevent a cold?
Although there is no immunization for the common cold, you can take the following steps to help prevent contracting it:
- Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. This reduces the risk of spreading viruses and bacteria. Also wash hands after contact with an infected person or surface.
- Avoid contact with infected people. Cold viruses are often spread through close proximity so keeping a distance for the duration of the cold is ideal.
- Engage in a healthy lifestyle. Eating well, (consuming foods and drinks high in vitamins and antioxidants) exercising, getting enough sleep and avoiding stress are great ways to build your immune system to prevent infections.
- If you do feel signs of a cold brewing, use BETADINE® Cold Defence Nasal Spray to help prevent viruses from spreading and to shorten the duration of a cold.
What is an upper-respiratory infection?
An upper-respiratory infection (URI) is an infection that affects the upper air passages including the larynx, the nasal cavity, the nasal passages, and the pharynx.
The sources of URIs are almost always viral. Droplets of infected saliva and mucus spray out into the air when a person sneezes or coughs. Other people may breathe them in, or they can land on surfaces that others touch. Symptoms can include:
- Coughing
- Discomfort in the nasal passages
- Mild fever
- Excess mucus
- Nasal congestion
- Pain or pressure behind the face
- A runny nose
- A sore throat
- Sneezing
