Read the info at the link. It’s from the CDC. Dated late July this year.

I mean, you probably don’t subscribe to Virology Today, but, international travel came to a standstill and kids were not in school, many employers allowed working from home. So…. there’s that.

You seem to have an issue with the flu. How about the common cold. How many people do you know that have had one recently? Ive been around the same 30-50 people for 8 months or more and never hear a sneeze or cough.

I myself get a new one a week after I’m over the other one and haven’t had one for almost 2 yrs.

You mean this? I know a few people who’ve had symptoms of something that could be a cold, allergies, flu, COVID, or something else. What does that prove or disprove?

I find it difficult to believe that COVID, a respiratory virus, spread everywhere during lockdowns, mask wearing, etc. and no other virus spread at all. Do you buy that?

So the recent CDC info is wrong? You need to let them know, I’m sure they’d appreciate it.

I only know from my personal experiences. Anyone I’ve ever talked to regarding hand sanitizer and not shaking hands are okay with it and the overwhelming comment is because they like not having colds.

I don’t know about the flu because I’ve had it 2-3 times in all my life. Colds for me are quite common.

The only question I have is that if all those measures recently put in place can derail the common cold, why do you have such a hard time believing it can do the same with the flu.

Other real experience. I’ve followed hockey all my life and remember on occasion when 1, 2 or even 3 (on the rare occasion)players were out of the lineup with the flu.

The Vancouver Canucks had 23 out with Covid.

Steve…..maybe it’s possible that it’s as contagious as they say
