  I'm havin' flu or a pretty bad cough now. But my friend ask me to go and play soccer, should i?
  
  He said when you exercise, you increase the production of red blood cells, which helps the oxygen flow and stuff. Is it true?

  very soon i will see a newspaper article about a young kid is sick and went to play soccer and died...

  to a certain extent, your friend may be right.
  
  when you exercise, your blood moves faster, and suddenly, you feel better.
  however, after that, you will feel even worse.
  
  I believe in moderations, if you want to play, enjoy can, but don't strain lor.
  
  cause if you sick, it will rob you of normal activities like in soccer, you can't really go all out..
  
  you want to play, can.. make sure you got extra clothes after game to change.
  and plenty of fluid.. and then rest well.
