there was a cold or flu going around that we called ‘The Crud’

-Symptoms were chills for a coupel days (3 i think)
-Sniffles for 3 days
-Nauseous
-slight headache
-Slight Sore Throat
-Slight fever (Mine only got to 99.3)
-Very tired- slept long hours
-Weak, little things exhausted us- made us weak and shaky
-Diarrhea for 2 days

Pretty sure it wasn’t Covid because of The “D” and Nausea, and the fact that where we are, there were zero cases- still are only a few cases around us weeks later- (Mainly from city folks coming up north to shop and wipe us all out of toilet paper and food)

Nausea and diarrhea were found in 10 to 15 % of cases in China. 3 to 5% tested for covid but no other symptoms besides the gastro.

In your list the fatigue is the best match. I happened to be off from work, but I couldn't do anything. My sore throat was not really sore, but more than slight. My nausea came with the loss of smell and taste. I just did not want any food, even chocolate which I love.

I figured with feed a cold, starve a fever, I had enough fever that it was ok to starve. I still think it was the flu and not covid, but these articles are making me question that.

My girlfriend and her son both had the ‘crud’ the end of November. Could barely breath but both tested negative for flu or pneumonia. Thankfully, I got nothing.
