Because I'm backup to our receptionist I find that a lot of times that I am sick I come in to work anyway. Depending on the sickness - sometimes I take a 1/2 day / sometimes I stay all day. When I wake up in the morning sick and find it extremely hard to get out of bed then I'll stay home.
I think going to work when sick shows devotion & loyalty - but also you take the risk of getting other people sick.
