THIS week I am filling with RAGE

I am a very kind person. I help others
I am practical and intelligent and take care to keep others safe around me, especially during the pandemic. So it is a mystery how I got COVID, but that's done business, time to mitigate and try my best to survive.
That someone was probably careless enough that I got their case has me irritated, That others still deny it knowing I have it gets me angry, That they press on even after the election is DONE and there's noone left to sway (even if counting weren't done not one more vote will get cast) has me mad, That they come on my posts and say I have flu,or that I'm not having it at all... That fills me with rage!
THIS MIGHT KILL ME, it could kill one of my children, it could kill my girlfriend ...
Even if you don't believe, don't come on my post and insensitively discount the words on the page that came after the symptoms. This ain't no FLU. I've had plenty of flu in my life, this is NOT like those.
I don't need your disrespect butt monkey, This shit hurts!

The virus is real, the pandemic is bullshit

If you wanna live, take my advice

Make sure to get rid of all the phlegm, don’t lay down too much, if you do prop yourself up some so you’re not laying flat, take hot showers and cough out the phlegm, use vick’s vapocream or something similar every time you feel yourself clogging up

It’s just like any other flu but makes you more tired, any flu can become pneumonia and that’s how it’s been killing people, they lay down too much and it accumulates in the bronchial tubes and then lungs

Source: I hate it myself in December, and researched both asking others who had it and did thorough online research, eliminating data that was not consistent
Doctors are only checking for fever so even if we wear out mask we may still get it. I’ve been coughing all week. I could have it and I always wear my mask. @th3r0n

@Spoiledbrat if you’re sick and wearing masks, wash it daily if it’s fabric, and replace it daily if it’s the other kinds etc

Pathogens can build up from it and it can make it harder to fight any pathogens that way

@th3r0n It is NOT the flu, and you are caught. honestly if you're going to lie do your research.
Covid is not the flue
covid is not the flu
covid is not the flu
and the US had only had 4 cases by JANUARY 202, so how you had it in DEC and have a US account...
Further do not come here and disrespect me the EXACT WAY I SAID DON'T
I don't even have wet coughs and sneezes, dry as a bone.

@Spoiledbrat Get a real test!
And you're right the non mask wearers who do get it still go out tehre and cough on you and your clothes... you go home, take your clothes off and they rub your face... viola, Covid
That’s not what I said but okay. @xmedleft

@xmedleft I clearly made the mistake of speaking to the ignorant, I’ve done quite a lot of research and found that many people had it in December, and the reason the numbers “inflated” so quickly at the beginning was because it had been around longer in the US than they were saying, and the more people got tested the more positive results

whether you spell it flu or flue it doesn’t change the fact that it has the same symptoms as a flu, and corona virus is not new, it has been a long known pathogen, this is just the most recently discovered iteration to infect humans, and the symptoms are ~100% identical to, guess what, the flu

FYI, the testing numbers are massively inflated by intention, they got caught counting tests not individuals, calling many things COVID that weren’t, and my best friend actually got tested and tested positive, went to another doctor and tested negative

So if your symptoms don’t match, go get tested at another doctor and don’t tell them anything about it and see if it’s positive again

@Spoiledbrat Aye, you said
I could have it and I always wear my mask.
THAT's What I was agreeing with, then I added a possible route to the discussion.
I do not rubberstamp facebook pasts, that's why noone sees me here much. I'm here often enough, but I'm not trying to get into anybody's pants, so I don't leave a lot of just "Yeah, what she said" So if I do agree, I also contribute further. my conversation builds and includes.

@th3r0n Continue to misinform and I will cut your reply down.
Yes, it's censorship, but it's what bigger networks are doing ON THEIR OWN.
I have it now, I have had flu numerous times. THIS is not THAT. This is apples, those were oranges. Perhaps it is you that didn't actually have it.
SOME of the symptoms are the same, suuure, but some are like nothing I've ever had -- but thank you for discrediting my experience on MY post as mentioned NOT to do.

Corona is distantly in the family of flus, but a longer removed branch with no actual flu germs in it. It's in the family of SARS. It's also in the family of H1N1, which was going to be called the 3rd round of Swine flue, but they found it to be so different -- that is why they renamed it and reclassified it.
th3r0n · 41-45, M
@xmedleft H1N1 was called “Bird Flu” for a reason, swine flu is also the flu, so was the spanish flu

Some are worse than others, just like normal flu viruses we don’t have names for or don’t know the names of some are worse than others

But yes, I’ll agree that it was like nothing I ever had

I have a strong immune system and I’m somewhat physically active, I can sprint up a flight of steps reasonably well with most flu viruses, though I am out of breath at the top instead of barely winded as usual

With the corona virus in December, I was even more out of breath walking up the same flight of steps, never had anything make me that tired as an adult

That was the one distinguishing characteristic though

Funny thing, my dad has never had any flu ever, and I was around him when I had it and he never got it from me
