I am feeling sick from a cold for about 4 days now. I just have basic cold symptoms but wondering if aything else is going around. I am able to go to work bt feel bad sitting in a small office coughing all over the place. I don't have fever but feel weak and tired. I guess I'm wondering if others have something similar, if anyone knows if something is gong around, and curious if people go to work with a cold at the coughing and sneezing stage bt no fever.

My sister has the flu, and my niece had it last week.

I gotta get everyone to get flu shots around here...

Yes really bad virus going around. I know people who felt really sick and tested for everything. It's just a regular really bad virus.

Flu, RSV, and Covid are in the area.

If you are having trouble breathing, you should be seen- no matter what it is.

Continued coughing and/or difficulty breathing can be bronchitis or pneumonia that develop from the other illnesses.

All 3 are going around. And a negative rapid c covid test is next to meaningless. If you feel that badly please have a pcr.

I work in a local hospital. We are having a recent rush of patients being admitted with negative PCRs who are symptomatic the next day and then showing up as Covid positive. A lot of new staff exposures that way.

Please everyone if you’re sick get tested so you know not to expose others

Negative PCR doesn’t always mean no Covid. Last year I was feeling lousy, did a PCR on a Thursday that came back negative. On Motzei shabbos I felt even worse, did a rapid and it was positive.

Lots of covid now. Please PCR and rapid...
It can look just like a cold for some people but others can get hospitalized. I know someone in the hospital from a covid related issue. He is young, not "sickly".
