Wife and I are in mid-60s and caught what appered to be a bad cold that took a couple weeks to get over (still not 100% right even though i don’t feel sick) but have one friend who got the Flu and spent 2 days in hospital because they thought he was having heart problems. Another friend was fine and dandy when I saw him and 3 days later was in ICU and intubated for 3 days. Now breathing on his own but still in ICU. Been trying to avoid places with lots of people all through the season.
The Enemy Media are truly not exaggerating how bad this is...for a change!
There's a lot of that cold going around.
I started with it the day before Christmas and it was just last week that I finally started to feel better.
Still dealing with the congestion from it.
I was warned that this thing hangs on for a good month and boy, were they right.
