@bicmay I'm beginning to read effed up doomsayers' essays too, about the combo of H5N1 and flu maybe becoming the 2026 pandemic. Masking up indeed!

I remember getting the flu that year; I was unconscious for 2 or 3 days, only woke up to use the bathroom once or twice
0/10 do not recommend taking any risks with this special subclade K

@bicmay we should call it the "trump flu"
"Trump measles." "Trump whooping cough." "Trump rsv."
