This is a luck of the draw kind of thing. God’s plan.

One person may fight it and another’s system gets overwhelmed and you croak.

Like the flu.

We experienced that in my family. Normal healthy young student. Gets told by the Doctor she has the flu. Less than two days later dead from sepsis and pneumonia.

It’s all well and good for people to go around on these threads mocking people for being concerned.

Until it hits their family.

You have to live your live and take some precautions.

It is my understanding that during the Spanish Flu, it hit and killed the young and strong...When I say young...teenager and above. Their bodies spun into overdrive in trying to kill the disease and that is what killed them. Oldsters, who had a relatively compromised immune system to begin with fared better than their younger relatives in this respect.
