The only difference is now, we are a more populated and weaker immune system.
Plus we expect a lot from others to take care. We have lot of irresponsible people who refused to do good. We are in Societal decline. Lack of empathy towards others.
HIV, EBOLA, Hongkong flu were localized. Asian flu was airborne but restricted (localized). H1N1 was slow spreader and less lethal. This fast contagion and more lethal.
With H1N1, my fever was stuck between 101 and 104 for 7 days. And the cough was horrible. Body ache was horrible. I took 16 extra strength Tylenol per day, still out of control fever. 7th day I saw the doctor and he gave me oseltamivir phosphate. Within 2 days a fever came to normal and cough within 10 days. I did lung exercise for over one month.
Coronavirus, they are saying its ugly viral pneumonia.
What the Administration is trying to do is reduced a lot of people in ICU at one time.
Now Chinese are travelling more. Frequency of these flus will be more. Before 2000, China was a closed country.
The was a story first heard from my dad’s DR about a physician in Canada who gave her patients vitamin D3. He tested both dad and I and we were short of the vitamin
When HINEy as my nurse cousin called it came around she also told the story. None of her patient caught the flue so none died from it. Her community had been hit hard.
So between the two dad and I started taking D3 regularly.
