Have you had any flu like symptoms since 2020?

Were you vaccinated and boostered?

Lots of people like to pretend they didn't get it while not actually knowing.

Yeah, this is my 65-year-old aunt. Never got covid she says - and yet she's been sick more than once since 2019. She just never tests - so she never gets covid! Easy!

I've had the flu a few times but whenever I tested (I was quite concerned) I always tested negative. Like 3 separate flus.
