I caught the Flu virus twice this year.
It started with a runny nose, cough, and raspy throat. Throughout both occurrences, there was a very mild fever. You can feel you are hot but the thermometer doesn’t register. The fever lasts for more than 3 days.
The first time it took me 1 week for the runny nose and fever to subside. The cough was much longer.
The second time, the fever broke after 4 days. Same as the runny nose.
Both times, with multiple tests on different days, ART was negative.
The reason I posted this, is that the second time when I caught the flu, my colleague caught COVID-19. We were together for a customer meeting, I was masked, but my colleague wasn’t. 3 days later, both of us were down.
Did my body respond differently?
