         <description><![CDATA[<div>A: The effects begin similarly to the common cold, with a runny nose, fever and a mild cough.

It often take 2-3 additional weeks to recover, during this time, complications may arise such as pneumonia, bronchitis, or other respiratory infections.  </div>]]></description>
