83 years old. Central Virginia. Contracted influenza type a on December 20. Still recovering. Was taken to ER because I fell twice. Was hospitalized for nine days. Total. Back home now, but still weak. This flu is not fun.
Thanks for kind wishes. I neglected to add that I have taken flu shots every year for as far back as about 1990. Didn’t help much this time around, though. Also recent COVID and RSV shots.
I just keep remembering the Swiss Cheese Model! Nothing is 100%. Multiple precautions including masking, testing, social distancing, avoiding large crowds, clean air filters and vaccination up the odds. Even built a Corsi - Rosenthal Box, just to see if I could do it. A fun project! Thanks for all you do Caitlin, and Happy New Year!

Or maybe it saved it your life!

Once again, Americans demonstrate how dumb they are in staying healthy. A shameful nation.
No more derogatory comments, please.
Thank you!
I think I’m missing the regional edition despite subscription. Where can I access? Thanks!
