Flu caught up with me last Saturday after a trip to Bangkok and Pattaya to catch up with some visitors. I think the last time I had it was a couple of years ago, and I sweated it out in about three days. This time it's deeper and lingering longer. My son got an antiviral flu shot last year that sorted him out in less than a day, but it seems that only works within the first 48-hours of symptoms, otherwise deal with it and stock up on Tylenol.

had the ass kicking variety the latter part of September. Took me 2 weeks to get finished with it and another 2 weeks to recover.. Then got hit with a massive cold that had symptoms quite similar to Flu Type A but tested negative for COVID or Flu.. Watch out for the influx of tourists and visitors coming into high season. They'll surely bring their home country variety of Flu with them..
