Many probably have. My wife caught it late October before the CDC actually admitted there was a new virus around.

She told me she felt like the flu was starting to get her. But she also said breathing is harder than usual.

Her trouble breathing made me think she was having heart trouble. (Runs in her family). Her docs put her on a treadmill and gave a stress test. Poor lady said the test about killed her.

Every one of us involved thought it was flu at first.

Heck we even thought that afterward. We’re not getting younger and thought the flu had whooped her good. (I had it also but symptoms were very mild to the point I ignored them for worrying about her)
