I hear there’s two kinds of flu going around in NYS. One is the classic flu, the other is a stomach bug.

Lots of people have been sick with colds, also.

We got it here. My husband has been sick and in bed for the whole week. He didn’t have the flu shot.

I got the flu next, but got a prescription of tamiflu, plus I had the shot. I’ve heard that having the shot makes it less severe. I’ve been much better than my husband.

My daughter has it, but she seems to be getting much better. She had a flu shot.

I’m hoping my other daughter doesn’t get sick. She had a grand mal seizure in October and has been diagnosed with a seizure disorder. Getting sick lowers seizure threshold.

My son isn’t sick yet, but he said a lot of kids at school are getting sick.

I can tell. Most patints coming in with the flu had their immunization.

I’m (hopefully) in the final stages of it right now.

My eyes have never watered so much in all my life.

Everyone thinks I’m upset and I’ve been crying.
