Reply to comment by jahblaze in NYC Issues Plea as ‘Most Transmissible Form of COVID-19 We Know of to Date' Spreads by brooklynlad

yeah... waking up so full of crap that you just gotta throw up is greeaaaat. I talked to a friend yesterday and he heard something about getting the flu ALSO and that somehow making PCRs come back neg even when you have COVID. Not sure if he was getting it confused with the instant tests or any of that tho.

Yeah that was my suspicion as to what I got, covid plus flu. I tested positive for covid before all the flu symptoms flared up

lmao. Inevitably I got downvoted for trying to add something to the conversation, just like I thought. Facts and reason have no place here as usual.

If that is in fact what it was, my god. It was awful. top 5 worst I've ever felt easily. Who knows, will be a while before we can get up to like 99% accuracy with telling the difference between these novel respiratory viruses. (not that the flu or RSV itself is new but constantly mutating.)
