Meanwhile, my wife had the flu two years ago and was out for four weeks. It started to get better at the two week mark and then hit her harder than ever and it ended up being four weeks of hell. But she is fine and I never got it, even though I cared for her the entire time.
At the same time in seattle, my brother also got the flu. In his case it was six weeks and a trip to the ER. But he completely recovered too.
The CV19 is just another thing that can make you sick, and on rare occasion, kill you. Especially if you are very old or grossly obese.
Yep, you can die from a minor cold.
Some of that was pneumonia, right? I was on an inhaler for the pneumonia following the Flu four years ago. Abuterol, the drug given to people with asthma. Better now. The flu was a few days, the pneumonia was over a week with chunks of mucus being coughed out.
