I dunno about it not being real. Couple years ago at the start of this crap, my whole family was sick as hell for like two weeks. I had the sniffles and was kinda tired for a couple days.

Then, last month the same thing happened again, except this time everyone is only sick for 3-4 days.

Both times, it was either the flu or covid or a really, bad cold. I'm pretty sure, though that it was covid we all had last month. I refused to get tested or any of that crap though.
