CASES of a "super flu" that leaves sufferers with "brains like porridge" are soaring, officials data suggests.
In England, suspected cases of the bug climbed to 1,178 in the week ending December 10, more than triple the 370 confirmed a fortnight ago. Flu cases began rising significantly in October but still appear lower than last year, according to suspected cases from the notification of infectious diseases data (NOID) report.
Around 402 patients were in hospital with flu last week, up two-thirds on the 243 the previous week and more than double the 153 a fortnight ago, NHS data shows.
People suffering from the viral infection have warned it feels like the "worst flu [they have] ever had".
However, there is no scientific evidence to suggest flu circulating this season is any worse than previous bouts.

My sis is in hospital ATM with RSV.
Bless her heart. She sounds like a goose with her hard cough. ☹
Well, they’re both incomprehensible to me.
Prayers for your sis- Hope they are able to give her something to calm down the involuntary ‘need’ to cough
back in the 80’s i got a cold or flu where i coughed so hard i pulled muscles or something in the rib area- totally painful experience-
You’re going outdoors? OUTDOORS? - How dare you! lol-
I’m still not taking the needle. Fool me once... Actually, I wasn’t fooled the first time either.
👍🙂
I think she has that “good cough syrup” that hardly any of us can get now (which works).
Also, make sure you are caught up on all your boosters!
Adverse reaction to the vax? Reduced immune system function in some leading to deeper illness? Whatever it is -I don’t believe whatever fear mongering they are pushing.
