This has nothing to do with influenza, except the possible outcome in a severe case.

I had a similar experience except I strained the lower back muscles laid on the floor unable to move for two days. Had to wait for the wife to get back home. ....ended up in rehab for six weeks. Awful experience.

Laymen like us really don’t understand the difference between a flu and this thing; other than this thing attacks the pulmonary system

Time to send a democrat envoy to china to check it out. I can think of several names. Greta ought to go too so she could lecture them about being caused by Climate Change.

The devil made me post this ...

The devil made me ping this ... Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

From 2017.

https://www.nature.com/news/inside-the-chinese-lab-poised-to-study-world-s-most-dangerous-pathogens-1.21487

The Wuhan lab cost 300 million yuan (US$44 million), and to allay safety concerns it was built far above the flood plain and with the capacity to withstand a magnitude-7 earthquake, although the area has no history of strong earthquakes. It will focus on the control of emerging diseases, store purified viruses and act as a World Health Organization ‘reference laboratory’ linked to similar labs around the world. “It will be a key node in the global biosafety-lab network,” says lab director Yuan Zhiming.

The Chinese Academy of Sciences approved the construction of a BSL-4 laboratory in 2003, and the epidemic of SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) around the same time lent the project momentum. The lab was designed and constructed with French assistance as part of a 2004 cooperative agreement on the prevention and control of emerging infectious diseases. But the complexity of the project, China’s lack of experience, difficulty in maintaining funding and long government approval procedures meant that construction wasn’t finished until the end of 2014.

The lab’s first project will be to study the BSL-3 pathogen that causes Crimean–Congo haemorrhagic fever: a deadly tick-borne virus that affects livestock across the world, including in northwest China, and that can jump to people.

Future plans include studying the pathogen that causes SARS, which also doesn’t require a BSL-4 lab, before moving on to Ebola and the West African Lassa virus,

******************************
It should be a delegation of DemocRATS.... a VERY LARGE delegation of DemocRATS. The selected delegates should be chosen from among those who have the most contact with other DemocRATS and who largely limit their social and business interactions to other ‘RATS.

Yeah,,,that’s the ticket. /sarc

You’re giving me flashback shivers. I had viral pneumonia about ten years ago, it nearly dropped me and it was over three months before I felt half human again. I don’t think I will survive another round.

My reaction to the Swine Flu Sot was similar (No Re-hab)

They did from the Spanish Flu in 1918. And it mainly attacked young healthy people.

Yep. Soldiers at Ft. Reilly, KS woke up, went to PT, showed up at BRC (Breakfast Roll call) and were dead by DRC (dinner (LUNCH) roll call) . There are primary sources and doctors/nurse notes of those days. They thought the end of the world was neigh when perfectly healthy kids age 17-22 died within a few hours.
