    Yeah, the flu is nasty this year... I'm now on 1 week and it's getting better, but still lingering.

    3 solid days of fever above 100

    Did it help getting the flu shot? I did NOT get the flu shot, and curious if they got close to helping this year..

    And what I remember T-Fog's boss is is a real hard-ass!

    I'm the head cook, bottle washer, and HMFIC, so yeah, opting out of work is not really an option. I never have had a flu shot, but I'm reasonably sure this isn't flu. Flu usually isn't respiratory(except in 1918, when it killed 20 million).

    My oldest (5) got the flu a couple weeks ago, I've never seen him down for the count like that, he even complained of having a hard time walking.

    Influenza is pretty light this year with only 121 hospitalizations so far in Colorado. Influenza Like Illness's (ILI) are climbing fast however. An ILI is just what is says, looks and feels like the flu but it is not, so there are other virus out there. Maintain good hygiene, drink plenty of fluids, and don't eat sushi from a gas station.
