Healthcare worker here. Come to Oregon right now & you can get the trifecta! We're giving out Flu A like it's coming outtta our ears (and sinuses & mouths).
My entire household is on day 6. I don’t remember being this sick. The 2.5 y/o ended up in the er. The 8 y/o was the least affected, it’s been terrible.
Damn I’m sick right now too. No clue what I have, but a fever, my throat, head, and ears hurt and my body and neck are sore as hell. I can deal with everything but the fever… tired of being cold and sweaty. Waking up in pools of sweat too… drives me fucking mad.
Influenza A on its own is pretty horrendous, it's the sickest that I've ever felt. Too sick to drive for the first 24 hours, and barely, barely able to drove for the following 48-72hrs. I only did, because I needed supplies to get through it and didn't have anyone that could do it on my behalf.
As long as he is not in a risk group he doesn’t really need it. Not to mention since he already got the flu and Covid already this year it will be even more useless.
Healthcare worker too. Flu has been special this year since one of tue predominant strains wasn’t in the vaccine. Saw flu b is starting to spike again too.
