    I was sick for 3 weeks just recently. Thought I had COVID too, but I tested negative. It started as the flu, then morphed into a bad cold, and finally into a sinus infection. Once I went through a course of antibiotics it cleared up.

    I've been on a constant get sick every 3-4 weeks loop. Everyone in my family keeps passing things around. Haven't gotten the flu yet. But covid, metapneumovirus, basically everything else.

    Good news everyone!

    ‘Unknown disease’ that can kill within days leaves 53 dead in Congo
    World Health Organization officials said the outbreak appeared to originate from a village where three children died after reportedly eating a bat carcass.

    W.H.O. is always testing...and as a wise man with tiny little hands once said.

    Testing "creates more cases"...

    Vaccines are more effective against measles than prayer. People prayed for their sick children for centuries. The children died. People got children vaccinated. The children lived.

    Perhaps if vaccines were delivered by firearm, the current opposition might be more in favor. Worth a shot.

    I'd sign up for that job. Vaccine sniper. Just tag people when they're out in public.

    If they renamed rubella as the Mexican measles, the MAGA crowd would be storming the doors of their local clinics to get vaccinated.

    This thread is magical. People dunking on antivaxxers in between complaining about how they got sick and how bad it was.
    Did you guys not get your boosters or what?
