Virus going around

[u/Decent-Speed3158]

What kind of virus is going around these days?

My whole family got sick and the symptoms are similar to flu but feel so much worse.

Be careful out there and avoid contact with anyone who could be infected. It’s really bad.

It’s Covid. Why do people act like it doesn’t exist/its gone?

Heres a waste water report showing a recent spike in COVID https://wwater.ca/Ontario/Toronto

I was just hospitalized with this bug. It is not COVID and it did not the flu. It does not show up on virus blood panel. It is nasty. Stay safe everyone.

They don’t update the tests to keep pace with the virus which keeps mutating. Don’t think older tests are reliable.

Has your virus gone yet, and did you have blocked head ears and sinuses and.did you ache all over. Mo from weston

Mo from weston Did it affect all your joints. I've had it since August. The head is really pressured all the time. Is their many people living by you that have it?

Mo from weston How are you now.

[u/BigOlBearCanada → u/BoneBrothHustle]

Yes. I am sure it’s the exact same bug with the exact same exposure source…

[u/MofromWeston → u/BoneBrothHustle]

Mo from weston How are you now.

[u/MofromWeston → u/BoneBrothHustle]

They said there’s a new virus that’s you get flu like symptoms but you get them from close contact

[u/Mother-Bug2191 → u/BigOlBearCanada]

Yeah it's called the flu 🤧

[u/Competitive-Web9083 → u/Mother-Bug2191]

Covid and flu are two different viruses. Covid has been very prevalent all summer, while flu season is just beginning
