I think the flu has about a 10% asymptomatic ratio. Who knows how many carriers this virus has.
My hubby is actually a GREAT ‘asymptomatic’ carrier of the flu.
He gets the flu and sneezes and clears his head a time or two. He does this with allergies too. But it’s a little more noticeable when he’s actually got the flu. Maybe once or twice an hour. NEVER runs fever or feels bad.
The first time ‘we’ all got the flu before we figured this out. The second time when he did the sneezy thing a cpl times in an hour I ‘made’ him get swabbed. Shocker, it was flu A. His coworkers were grateful for this as he’d done the sneezy bit on sunday and avoided contaminating them at work on Monday.
I’ve never gotten the flu. Not even when I know I’ve been exposed and should have gotten the flu. Yes, I was swabbed. Nurse was shocked I had a house full of flu patients and never got it. I even went back a week later to get swabbed again. No dice, still no flu.
