I’m wondering: can you have the flu AND Coronavirus?

Absolutely. Before COVID-19 ramped up, we noticed a remarkable number of patients diagnosed with both influenza and strep throat this season.

Also note--there are two types of coronavirus (229E and OC43) which cause the common cold. There is no cross-immunity for the two cold viruses. In other words, you potentially could get over a cold and come down with another, or be infected with both at once. OC43 is the most common.

I sent a care package (from Costco :) to a lifelong friend, who lives in a large city, and refuses to believe any of this is a big deal.

Protein bars and TP.

I asked my adult children if I could “isolate” in either of their homes. I am in a poorly managed senior living facility. Guess what?

They really don’t want to take me in. All are working full time, too busy, etc. They don’t really get that this isn’t a cold or the flu - they are too busy to pay attention, and poo-poo my worries as alarmism/panic.

I feel sorry for them, but I love them anyway.

I work in a university (though I work from home) that’s probably close to you, if I can read between the lines.

Please keep us updated with as much info as you can!

He works for an airline contracted by the Feds. Working with the Gov. they will get him home. The DOD is directly involved in his flight plan

Came across this thread from 2009 when the Swine Flu epidemic was hitting, over 8000 posts.

Frankly before this whole thing started, I had almost completely forgotten about it.

I just hope 10 years from now, I would have completely forgotten about this.
