Cousin just passed yesterday morning from flu. 55
Eat healthy, stay fit. That is how you avoid getting sick. Flu shots are non sense. IMHO.
I’m so sorry.
Haven’t seen a reported national death toll but my brother in Dallas said almost 1200 in Texas. I also haven’t seen a why on how the young are dying. CDC has reported 30 kids have died.
The flu in 1918 revved up the immune systems to the point it attacked the patient’s own organ. A cytokine storm. I suspect this is what’s going on this time. It’s treatable if recognized early. Not sure if E.R. docs are thinking that way yet cuz I don’t see it reported much at all. Hope they are.
Had this flu. Started New Years weekend. Not pleasant. GI tract on steroids while being hit by a semi!
