I caught the Flu virus twice this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first time it took me 1 week for the runny nose and fever to subside. The cough was much longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The second time, the fever broke after 4 days. Same as the runny nose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both times, with multiple tests on different days, ART was negative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
