And every hypochondriac in the country will be in the ED tomorrow sure they have Ebola. While those that really do have it will be home spreading it to others....
This is the thing ....I’ve worked a flu season or two — people who are highly contagious, coughing, feverish, etc will head right on out and shop, run errands, and just generally roam everywhere before planting their butts in a huge crowded waiting room where they proceed to cough and hack and sneeze in every direction ....they are the ones who refuse flu shots as well .... But most of all they refuse to stay home .... They seek anti viirals, but these only work if you catch symptoms right away. Anti viirals are also truly supposed to be reserved for those with chronic problems or who are immunocomprimised — problem is everyone in the world with flu symptoms wanes them if only not to have to be inconvenienced by the flu ....
People just need to learn to stay home with body aches and fever .... But they won’t.
