Are any of y'all getting sick with a crazy cough, unexplainable sore throat, or any other weird symptoms?
Wife and I did not get Covid vax, my oldest hasn’t had vax in 7 years and won’t have any more, and my youngest is completely vax free but we have still been catching all kinds of crap and I’m starting to wonder if there is something sketchy going on making people sick. We live a pretty normal life in a mid size city but the cough we got lasted weeks and went through all of us.
My son is in childcare a couple days a week and the older one goes to middle school so maybe we were unlucky and just caught some from their germs?
Just want some outside thoughts. I rarely get sick in the past.
Don’t forget the illegals
That’s my suspicion as well.
Close relative living in a large liberal city came down with the weirdest symptoms back in December. Developed thrush, rash, lymph nodes swelled up like a baseball (neck), high WBC, low RBC and platelets. Spent a week in the Hospital as the doctors ran every test imaginable (weird thing is that within a first few hours at the Hospital they told her that she had cancer without running any tests - like WTF?). All of her test results were negative, to include cancer. One of the first things they asked her is if she had been recently traveling to any tropical countries or been exposed to people from there - it was a “no” to the first and an “unknown” to the second question. The doctors then suspected she had TB, but after running multiple tests that also came back as a negative. A week after her discharge she had another consult with a different doctor who was shocked to discover that during the whole time she was being hospitalized they never prescribed any antibiotics to her; within a few days of taking the antibiotics a lot of her lingering symptoms finally subsided. The other week I remember reading an article (sorry, no sauce) that mentioned that doctors were encountering a never-been-seen-before strain of TB in the US that was known to exist only in Central or South America.
I wonder how it got here?
I told her to ask them to screen for these exotic strains of TB as well. Not sure if that’s happened yet.
