RIP. Tell your wife I love her.

Now that you mention it, those symptoms sound exactly like the cold I get every couple of years for the last 30 years.

Oh shit. Have I been getting Covid all these decades? Am I patient zero?!

lol. The difference is when I stand up, I feel like I'm going to pass out, especially if I try to do anything physical. Past colds didn't do that. The contrast between how I feel when sitting and when standing is pretty intense, and it's a feeling I've ever only had with covid.

But it is super weird how they basically stopped counting the flu, and are saying flu cases are like 0.001% the number of normal yearly cases... they're clearly counting flu as covid. But I also think omicron is real and spreading fast.

But who knows for sure, it's hard to read between the lines when there's so much misinfo flying around, our news media is ridiculous tbh

Yes, SYNDEMIC. It's half a syndemic:

...half a real infection. Only around 15% of Americans have had covid-19.
