This stuff is really bad. It’s hitting many of the senior living facilities in Minneapolis. Like the covid, the staff brings this flu into the facilities.

It is good that other germs are floating around. Just wait until Joe Biden opens up the boarders. Then we will have all kinds of diseases, bugs, lice...

That’s actually good advice.

I wish that’s all they said for the past two years.

Would have been better.

They did say that at the beginning—along with “avoid touching your face”—until the Maskerbators took over.

Stupid people need to start washing their hands like they did for ‘Rona.

Noro is a fecal/oral transmission virus spread by people with socially unacceptable bathroom handwashing habits (i.e. they don’t).

Our local school has actually had to close for a week to stop repeated outbreaks. They “say” it’s to deep clean, but it’s really to stop the stupid from sending their sick kids to school and re-infecting their peers.

Around my house, stomach flu is when you got a fever and be pukin.
If you just pukin, it’s food poisoning.

I almost never get URIs, but stomach viruses, a lot.

A few years ago, I got damn Norovirus. Took me out of commission for a week, closed half the schools in town. And this was a year before the China virus took over.
