The gene pool needs a dose of chlorine every now and then.
My mother's parents died from the 1918 flu. She was 11 and she came close to death as well.

Got another book in you?It's as if the holidays were designed by the cold and flu viruses.
Give a false phone number next time, like the CDC's number.
I had my DNA test via 23 and me. It said I wasn't susceptible to influenza (I can't remember exactly how it was worded.) I still get the flu shot. The last time I had the vomit flu was probably 50 years ago.
About 30 percent of people with European ancestry and about 20 percent of those with African ancestry carry the AA version of SNP rs601338 in the FUT2 gene. For these lucky folks need not fear the most common strain of norovirus like the rest of us. They lack the molecules noroviruses use to enter the digestive tract cells. It doesn’t mean they are bulletproof from getting sick, but they are protected against most strains of norovirus. Unfortunately, very few people of Asian ancestry carry the resistant genetic variant.
Sorry, the link I just tried to post does not work, apparently. Here is an excerpt from the article I was trying to link to: (from Dr. David Williams)
.... In fact, about the only thing flu vaccines are truly good for is lining the pockets of bio-pharmaceutical companies.

Gosh, you neglected to mention that David Williams is a chiropractor and not an MD. He claims to be a "medical researcher."...
Did you know that he sells his products on Amazon? They seem to be pretty darn expensive to me. Below are examples of two of the about 20 products he sells. Talk about lining pockets. But, for a chiropractor to develop an eye health supplement...?
Today, were it not for the flu, I'd be skiing at Winterpark in 16 inches of fresh powder. Oh, well, I'm probably getting too old for skiing anyway.
I have witnessed first-hand the misery caused by scammers who use their chiropractic doctorate to masquerade as medical doctors.
I'm going to be blunt. If you're basing your opinions about any non-chiropractic issue on something a chiropractor said, there's a very good chance you're delusional and need to totally re-think your belief system.
No need to beat this horse any further, it's time to move on.
Uh, jeez. Now you've given me an idea for a really silly short story. Like:
The representative from the influenza viruses brought up the next slide, showing a long tube with people packed inside....

I think I got it from Lena, though hers was milder. No one else has gotten it, surprisingly.Anyone else in your group catch it?
