Answer:

An appropriate instruction for the parents would be to treat common flu with liquids

Explanation:

The medical support must examine the children's throat to determine if he need antibiotics, depending on the inspection they can decide the necessity of that kind of medicine.

Also the body temperature of the children is slightly high but not in a situation of alarm, his SpO2 is normal, there aren't any anomalies in his breath sounds, his pulse is normal for a 6 year old kid the parameters are from 75 to 115 beats per minute and he is 124 so is slightly elevated but not in terms to diagnose tachycardia. His breath frequency is in normal parameters for a 6 year old kid that should be from 15 to 20 breaths per minute.

So in conclusion there isn't any clinical situation that indicates a major medical problem with the pediatric patient. Treatment should be liquids to recover from the flu, antibiotics for laryngitis in case of needed with examination and antipyretic with analgesic aid such as ibuprofen.
