It's a difficulty with Covid - so many different symptoms and so many that are the same as other illnesses.
I know heaps with Covid now for the mulitple time - some are getting it tough and some mildly.
My wife has had a cough for weeks that she can't get rid of - not Covid, not Whooping and it is really annoying, particularly at night where coughing fits wake us up several times.

Apparently RSV is quite bad at the moment, can be very serious for young children, has similar symptoms to COVID / Influenza and sticks around as a cough for weeks after you get it.
But we should not be surprised, the epidemiologists warned everybody that after the pandemic and isolation procedures we would get various waves of catch up infections because of reduced herd immunity. The problem is people don't listen, can't be bothered, claim it's a conspiracy or don't want to hear about it.
They also warned everybody COVID isn't done yet, and society has largely ignored that as well.

The latest anti-vax conspiracy internet influencer terrorism;
"Deliberately exposing infants to whooping cough protects / boosts their immunity to RSV."
These nutters should be first against the wall, their kids will be better off!

Eventually their stupidity will do the work for us.

What is probably worse, is that the mega social media platforms defend those nuffies freedom to post pretty much whatever they like even if it costs a life or causes a lifelong disability dependency on us all. We should find a case, form a class action and sue them for lifelong costs.

My personal view from the start was that it was a man made virus in a Lab but I guess this is just another opinion with only one highly unreliable country knowing the real truth.

There was a doco on (Netflix i think) that was talking about AI and specifically viruses.
I can't remember all the details, but these scientists were using it to generate sequences for vaccines etc.
Someone along the line they thought, wonder if we changed the 'virus lethality' marker from 0 to 1. (The smallest of changes in the code)
Ran it overnight, in the morning it had generated sequences for 1000's of the most deadliest viruses possible.
They debated whether they should tell anyone about it, ended up doing it and writing a paper on it. Wasn't long before they were summoned to all kinds of governments briefings including the white house.
It was so simple to do that it was scary.
So its 100% possible, now its just a matter if it actually happened in this instance. Given Chinas history and secretive nature, if it was going to happen anywhere.....

Ignore the Netflix dock stuff, it's truly fiction.
Of course it's possible to engineer a virus, but it's nowhere near as easy and as cheap as media like to imply.
One of the leading authorities on the Wuhan lab is the Aussie who was working there at the time, she said the claims were fantasy and the media ignore her. She isn't just an epidemiologist, she is an actual virologist.
Virologists will tell you the natural creation of such virus is common, what isn't natural is it becoming a pandemic, that's become possible due to human activities like packing live minks, stoats, civets, ducks, dogs and bats into sustained close proximity. Just that practice alone makes the Lab look like a toy, nature is 10000000X more powerful.
