Health Concerns
 
According to the media we have the worst flu epidemic in many years. There are three strains of the virus. My wife went to the doctor yesterday and was diagnosed with the worst strain. I have a couple that I know who recently got over the flu. If people could stay home when infected it would prevent the spread of the virus. Media are suggesting that people get the flu shot. Personally, I don't trust the shots because of what is supposed to be in them. Besides, these shots are only about 30% effective. I wonder how many drivers are currently I'll and how many have taken the flu shots?

I got the flu shot months ago and I've been pretty sick for the past two weeks.

The flu shot is only good for a handful of the flu strains says the WHO. There is something like 150 or more strains of the flu. Each year the WHO and others discuss which could be the most common in the upcoming year and develop a shot that can address approximately 35 of those. So its very possible to get the flu shot and still get the flu depending on which strain goes viral. If its one that the groups felt didn't need covering..........you aren't protected.

Best thing to do tbh is boost your immunity to protect you from the flu and also lessen the time you're sick.

Vitamin D, zinc, and Vitamin C will do the trick. Doctors say taking those three lessens the days sick by half.

Flu season has gotten much worse now with the Plandemic.

Still the best advice I can see is to take D3/Zinc/C vitamins to boost immunity health, and if you can ride out the virus if you get it, to gain natural immunity, that is your best outcome.
Also, stay out of high risk areas if you can.... like Hospitals. They are like a dog kennel.
Both my sister and brother in law just got the covid virus, and they got infected while in the Hospital, for my sister to get some pre-op exams done.

My heart pours out to anyone who is forced to lose their job or business over this madness going on with the clot shot they want to force on everyone.

5 days later, and my brother in law is being rushed to the Hospital, high fever from covid.
It will be sometime tomorrow, before I know how he's doing.
My sister is still fighting the virus, but doing a little better than him.

I have heard from others, things can turn for the worse after about 5-7 days.
some people even relapse, when they think they are getting better.

It's going around like wildfire here in Northern Michigan. :(

This is the big issue right now. Because the whole world is worried about Covid-19 issues. And during a few days there is a flu attack with dengue fever. People are scared and looking for a good solution.

My brother in law is still in the Hospital with complications from covid, which the Hospital, infected him and my sister with.
He's been there 4 days now. Sister is home, sick as well.
Hospitals are much like the government now, K-K-Kreate the problem, so they can be there to fix it for you, and in the end, they will leave you dead or maimed.
They are just here, to help.

Once this government destroys healthcare, they can 6uild 6ack 6etter.

Health concerns, such as the flu epidemic, raise important considerations for individuals and their communities. While media reports highlight the severity of the flu virus, it's crucial to rely on reputable sources like Cancun Cosmetic Dentistry reviews for dental-related information. Regarding flu shots, personal beliefs and concerns may vary, but it's important to remember that they are recommended by healthcare professionals as a preventive measure to reduce the risk of infection and its transmission. Ultimately, prioritizing one's health and taking necessary precautions can contribute to the well-being of both individuals and the broader community.
