If you didn’t get a flu shot, see your doc about Tamiflu. It can radically decrease the effects of flu.

She had a good run. Just take her out in the woods like old Sparky.

Absolutely. I did this a couple of years ago when my wife and kids all had it at the same time. I did get sick, but only had a fever for a few hours one night, and I was back to normal the next morning.

Crazy season and this is a crazy flu. I had it for a week but never went to the dr because I never had fever (at least not when I checked). I just got tired of coughing. Turns out I had the flu, and the cough lasted 2 more weeks

DMT, Ketamine and marijuana are the only answers.

On a serious note I hope she has a speedy recovery and doesn't pass her evil on to you.

In some cases. Also in some cases can make you feel much worse than the actual flu.

The strain this year seems to be a mild one. I had it and all it did was make me feel super tired. No aches, stomach issues or really anything else.

My oldest boy, Lil Cane, got it and was given a dosage of 2 pills to be taken in 24 hours. Cost $100 for 2. In 24 hours he was perfectly fine.

Wish I could remember the name of the drug

Finally a use case for drones. This is her way of saying go ahead and buy that one you've been eyeballing on Amazon.

No no... my wife is from Europe, and Vodka is the only answer.

I had it a couple of weeks back... both my daughters took tamiflu and were good....
wife took OTC stuff that she got at Walgreens i think and was also good.... and it was much cheaper than the tamiflu.
