There was a nasty flu going around that winter. I got it in October/November and it very nearly hospitalized me. I was down for two solid weeks.
It was too early for C19, but it was brutal nonetheless.
- rhino369 5y agoMy sister got it and had to skip Christmas. Tested positive for influenza.
- ceejayoz 5y agoYeah, my son got pneumonia in late 2019. Tested negative for previous COVID exposure over the summer of 2020; we certainly wondered prior to that.
- babyshake 5y agoI got a bad flu in early December 2019. Fever, vomiting, cramping. It does indeed seem like colds and flus have gotten considerably more nasty in the last decade.
- asdff 5y agoYou are also a decade older with a less robust immune system. That's why these statements are hard to qualify, too many latent variables.
- SideburnsOfDoom 5y ago> There was a nasty flu going around that winter. Yes, it was a bad flu season, with possibly more than one of the bad cold or flu in the winter of 2019-2020. I was ill 3 times in the last 3 months of 2019. On the last one I went to a doctor who basically said "there's a lot of it about". Also, the last cold that I had, was in February 2020.
