Who is this “everyone” who is talking about this? I’ve seen no reports of a mystery DC flu.

I still don’t buy that auditorium inauguration was all weather related.

I was just thinking that we hadn’t been powering through all the gears like this week since the Covid bio weapon exploded in late ‘19.

Actually, I *have* heard about it. Literally everyone I know in California who was in DC during the inauguration came back with the flu. Now, I’m talking about a tiny sample (like a dozen people), and it is cold/flu season, but it does seem curious nonetheless that all of them would get the same thing.

Why was Reagan’s 1985 Inauguration moved in doors?

Some times there isn’t a plot behind why things are done in DC

I had something nuts. It was painful. No sore throat, no taste no smell. Felt like I got whacked in the ribs with a bat.

Cough and no phlegm. Took a week for the pain. Another for the energy.

Worked in Manassas 13-21. Construction.

It’s flu season. Flu vaccines definitely help, but they’re not 100%.

Save your concerns for a year from now, and two years from now, and three years from now...

This is nothing new. Happens at this time of year. No big surprise.

Concerns about vaccines may cause more people to go without them, which will likely result in more cases of flu than usual. Things will be better in April.

My wife, son and several friends have had it. Takes 2-3 weeks to get over.

And yes it was likely a deliberate release according to my unnamed sources at the local meat, tea, and three two (inflation took away one of the vegetables) cafeteria.

That is a really good theory, and I’d believe it 100%. BUT there are so many people who have reported Covid-like illness starting around September 2020 that nobody could explain. In any case, I totally believe it was done purposely. No innocent “leaks”.

Oh sorry. My last post was re the first go-round in 2021. I think you’re referring to last month.

I have family and friends in the DC area. None of them seem to have caught anything and they’re not mentioning any kind of outbreak.

I got it before the inauguration. Yes, it was Covid. It has left me with some weird side effect that I will just have to wait and see if they disappear. It has messed up my ENT airway. I am doing weird snorts sometimes while inhaling sometimes exhaling and other oddities. Something is really jacked up.

I am experimenting to see what helps it.

I was wondering about it too because it seems like everybody that I know or know of who went to the inauguration got sick. They said it’s a bad flu. A bad bad flu. Besides that I don’t know anybody else who is sick except my niece up in Washington state.

Dan Bongino et ux came home from DC and talks about it on his show.

I currently have some kind of crud, but I’m in Pensacola. As far as I know, I haven’t come into contact with anybody recently in DC.

It was 7 degrees in DC and its flu season.

Did they use their new autonomous Biological Attack Transport System drones?

SOMETHING that doesn’t pass quickly is going around, but, I don’t think it necessarily got planted in DC 1st. My wife teaches at a parochial school and the absenteeism for cold and flu-like symptoms has been running 15-20% since they came back from Christmas break. The kids get over it fairly quickly, but for older adults it hangs on for weeks. The symptoms seem to be all over the place, except that, unlike early COVID variants, chest congestion, something I’m prone to, doesn’t seem to be much of an issue. In my case, there have been a lot of bad days due to fatigue and / or joint aches that nearly wiped me out. The way the aches “come and go” as compared to my usual (just gettin’ old), and the severity, is just “weird”.
