PSA: RSV Sucks
The watchword for this winter is clearly: Wear your mask and don’t trust your relatives.
I came away from Turkey Day with a virus, and it’s ticking all the boxes for RSV. Which, I mean, better that then Covid, but it still sucks pretty hard.
Two days and the sore throat is pretty much gone, which is to say it’s moved down into the top of my lungs, so there’s a fair bit of coughing going on. Fairly dry, so again, could be worse, but no fun.
Two days has also seen it settle into my sinuses pretty hard, and my left nostril is running like a faucet, which makes sleeping difficult, which makes the general malaise worse. Basically, this one is a whole world of bleah.
You do not want this. Wear your damn mask and don’t believe your relatives when they say they’re “fine”.

A month ago, I went to get my flu shot. Less than a week later, I got sick with some sort of virus, with the flu shot trip as the main suspect. How's that for irony?
I wish you speedy recovery! (Not that these things are usually that speedy, but one can always hope.)
