CV and mad panic behaviour

[LP]

Just to let everyone know there is a nasty, non-covid virus out in the community at the moment.

My wife and I had our booster shots on 20 December.  On 28 December we became ill, showing all of the covid symptoms except for not having a temperature.  The results of two RAT tests for each of us were negative, but we are still too ill to leave home.

Our daughter has told us that a friend of hers in her forties, double vaccinated, has been ill with the same symptoms since Christmas Day and has also tested negative.

Yep, [member=40]Macca37[/member] I can confirm this, I have contacts suffering the very same, nasty cough, sore throat, congestion, loss of appetite, multiple negative COVID tests. Our local Chemist was the first to alert us to it, but they don't want to make a big deal about it because they still want people to make sure they get COVID tested if the have such symptoms.

I don't need to remind people the health authorities have been warning of this, nature deplores a vacuum and the pandemic has left a gaping hole for a new flu or some other virus to slot into!
