Very true. We were told we had it, along with 8 other members of our family who went and got tested. 4 other family members had symptoms, but did not go get tested. We all lost our sense of taste and smell, well, we are assuming the 1 year old did because he wouldn't eat anything. Age ranges 1 to 90+. Some people had coughs, stomach issues, headaches, etc. Everyone survived. We think we got sick from a wedding.

Whether COVID is real or not, or if it's just this mysterious elusive practically eradicated thing called the flu, I have no idea. To me, it felt exactly like the flu.

I didn't mention zinc because I wasn't the original commenter.
