Make up for sick day on rest day?

On Monday I was sick with a fever and cold so I didn't work out. My rest day is normally Sunday. Wondering if I should work out today instead of taking a rest day because I already took a day off or not. That would mean I won't get another rest day until next Sunday so its kind of a lot in a row. What do you do when you take a sick day?

    I would take the rest day. One skipped workout, or even a week of skipped workouts, isn't going to make a big difference.

    Rest and recover.
    Think about the quality of training not just quantity.
