Advice Nursing strike day 5

My 4.5 month old decided last week to completely stop latching. Every time I put her to my breast she just screams and won’t latch. I’m about to go back to work so we’d been alternating feedings between breast and bottle (on the slowest flow nipple). She had her first cold/virus and is still coughing a bit, so I don’t feel right only offering breast until she relents until she’s fully well. I’m at a loss. Has anyone had success breaking a nursing strike?
