'Illness with a cough' means a cold or other acute respiratory illness with a cough. If a caretaker says "He coughs all the time" or "She's been coughing for months", do not count this as 'illness with a cough' since it is a chronic problem. If the answer is "no" or "doesn't know", circle the appropriate code and skip to Q. 11, drawing a line through the skipped questions. If the symptoms started before but continued into the two-week period, this counts as a "yes".
