You obviously do not know what bad flu is like. You do not want to experience it.

I'm almost 60 and have experienced some doozies in my life...and they were worse than Covid for me. Covid was like a weird combination of a 3/4 flu with a 1 and 3/4 cold :)

Yes John I'm 73 & got flu bad in December 1968 & thought I was going to die. For some reason I caught it several times, just as bad as the 1st, last time being 2008. Have had plenty of virus like illnesses since, but never as bad.

That brings back memories. My Dad got that 1968 flu and was moaning in the bedroom and my Mom was looking at me and my siblings in the living room looking concerned. So, she went into his room and whisper/shouted, "shut up! You're scaring the kids!" Ah, the good ole days :)
