it took me a while to grasp exactly how much Western media is freaking out about it, because I've been born and raised here, but the super scary graphic and music for it on the local news, welp. (when you consider the stats for the flu and how that's not making headlines...)

when even your mom, who is not keen on China, goes "there's just way too much panicking going on, it's not as terrible as the flu, just WASH YOUR HANDS MORE" welp.

I firmly believe my flu shot kept me healthy through the big year-end festival period, then saved me from a Bad Time* when three others in my office came down with Influenza A. Get ya shots, everyone. *I still got infected, but it was more of a sharp shove vs a Hulk punch

I've heard horror stories about how the flu has killed young, healthy folks here in the US, and now I make sure to get my flu shot as soon as I can. (I had a cold a few years back, and oh wow was that miserable)

It’s a totally different virus, so they’re really no use at all, whatsoever.
-
true, I was thinking more about how the flu here is local and more lethal than the coronavirus in terms of deaths (5k in the first 2 weeks of 2020), and yet people here in the US are careless with getting flu shots while panicking about the virus

I get mildly sick every year from flu shot but it beats the flu. I get the shot every year. Also added first of 2 pneumonia shots last year as I’m prone to catching that & I don’t care for 6-12 weeks+ severely ill & the additional ear infections.

Ooh, how many pneumonia shots are you supposed to get? I know my dad had to get one and he was under the weather for a few days, but that was it.

Regular flu killed 85,000 in the US last year. But yellow peril or whatever. Sheesh
