Seems like they change like the wind.
Woke up yesterday, headache, fever, body aches, stopped up nose... flu and Covid like. Didn’t go to doc. Just pushed though the day.
Last night I took two doses of Oscillococcinum. Reviews on it are mixed.. from miracle drug to fake medicine because of the homeopathic nature and no active ingredients.
Well I woke up this morning feeling great. Can’t really attribute it to a placebo effect because the symptoms are gone. Might have to keep this stuff stocked.

Headache has been the biggest thing. Bodyaches, sore throat, congestion. Some people have cough and fever, some don’t.

Parainfluenza 4 virus is also going around with same symptoms.

People that run fever with Covid usually only have it on day 1 and 2.

It’s now just another run of the mill cold. I haven’t swabbed anyone in a long time.

We're still having to swab at the LTC facility where I consult if they complain of a cold. It's so ridiculous at this point.

I was sick maybe two or three weeks ago .. very flu like but I stayed home and slept and took advil when the headache was really bad .. fever between 100 and 101.

There was zero point in getting tested for anything.

It just is what it is.

Never had Covid in my life until last weekend

For me, the main side effect was fatigue. It was bad.

I was tired as shite for 3 days, literally sleeping 12 hours at night when I usually sleep around 6-7, and I also took naps throughout the day and had no sense of smell or desire to eat

By day 5 I was back to normal, everything went away just as fast as it showed up
