Flu A is making its rounds in Houston kids the last 2-3 weeks. Pattern I’ve been seeing is fever and cough but not as much of an impact on energy.

Daughter had it the weekend after Thanksgiving. 101 fever, cough, terrible headache, etc. Xofluza is $97 for 1 pill on our insurance, and it's 100% worth it. She was right as rain 24 hours after taking it.

Get the flu shot, assuming your physician says it is appropriate for you.

My pcp recommended flu and Covid shot. Rejected Covid not because I’m a loon, but because 2 shots in one day seem excessive.

Nah I'll pass. I'll take my chances with fighting off the flu rather than whatever big pharma decides it wants in my body.

Hoping my shitty plan will eventually cover it. Last year they still wanted $300.

I’m sure you won’t take any medicine from big pharma while fighting it off..
