In our small church in Maine (under 60) we had 18 come down with covid (from different sources: school, work, eye DR appt.) in the past 3 weeks.
17 of the 18 who tested positive had mild to regular flu type symptoms and are over it.
***********
How do we know that it wasn’t the flu? I ask because I heard that the test can pick-up flu and colds as well as COVID.
Good question. Each home had some lack of taste and smell (2 hrs - 2 days). The biggest factor was fatigue. Only 1 of them was over 50.
They had tests at Walgreens or the at home test and false positives are possible.
