cloudybay Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Yep, it's called a cold. Don't let the truth get in the way of a pandemic story! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackey lad Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 9 hours ago, Annie Bynnol said: Me to. The mild symptoms are likely to be a virus known as a 'cold'. Doctors do not prescribe antibiotics for viruses because antibiotics have no effect whatsoever on cold viruses. The mild symptoms you describe are nothing like 'flu. 'Flu never went away. The Covid restrictions had the effect of massively reducing the spread. Three years of particularly successful 'flu vaccination programmes helped. Most Covid jabs were given in October/November so nothing to do with your cold. The 'common cold' viruses are highly infectious and fast mutating and no successful vaccines have been developed yet. The symptoms are the result of the reaction of our own immune system and are not caused directly by the virus. Hydration, diet, decongestant, off the shelf painkillers may help.
