More than 2.2 million people were still without power early Friday.

The flu, allergies, COVID and common colds all can cause symptoms like congestion, fatigue and sneezing, but it can be difficult to figure out which one you have. Dr. John Torres, NBC News senior medical correspondent, gave us tips on how to tell the difference and what to do if you start feeling sick, beginning with an at-home COVID test. "If you start getting sick, you have to assume it's COVID unless proven otherwise," he said. "Make sure you isolate yourself (and) get a test to make sure it's not COVID." Here's what symptoms to look out for, the best home remedies and why it's OK to get vaccinated against COVID and the flu at the same time. |

Happy birthday, Rusty! Dylan Dreyer celebrated her youngest son's first birthday with a gelato party yesterday. Dylan's husband, Brian Fichera, shared a sweet Instagram video of Rusty smiling — and then giving Dylan the "Mom, how about we get back to that gelato" look. Rusty's brothers, Calvin, 5, and Oliver, 2, can be heard chanting "Happy birthday, Rusty!" in the background as he savors his sweet treat. Rusty is thriving one year after being born six weeks premature, and he clearly is a man who enjoys his dessert. |
