If you have the real flu you are not going anywhere but to bed. You don’t walk around with the real flu.
Two winters ago, I was running a small crew of 7 and doing some tear downs and additions on an oil lease. I was the only journeyman. I was so sick at one point, I couldn’t even stand. The consultant told me, I don’t care what you do, just be here. The crew can’t work without me, I’m the only qualified man. I would lay in my truck mostly comatose. A few times I had to go look at something because the apprentices didn’t know, and I had to crawl.
The things we do in oil and gas heh. I don’t think I’d do it again though. I did get a good bonus on that one though.
That’s true, but by sending these kids to school when they have a “touch of” the flu, they are spreading it around further. Parents should just keep their sick kid home for a day or two and let its incubation period pass. Same with workers.
“You don’t walk around with the real flu.”
But you spread it by walking around with the ... I dunno.. fake flu, in your vernacular? And many people spread it AFTER they feel better because they feel a need to get back to the grind. But after the flu it’s also contagious.
The only win here is that every single person be somehow well-off enough to make all of these activities optional.
AFLAC and a savings account.
If you ae getting the flu you can infect people days before you have any symptoms.
Sure you do. Hubby had flu A earlier this year and if I hadn’t insisted he get swabbed, because the kids swabbed positive, he’d have gone to work.
The problem is you can be infectious while you’re still ambulatory.
