More digital sillynonsense from Jeff Putz

I'm trying very hard to keep up with work e-mail (and failing, since that last Vicodin put me out for five hours of glorious continuous sleep), and every other messages is about someone going home sick or going home to attend to sick kids or just not coming in because they're sick.

Is it that the company has just grown a ton and there are more people, or is there just a lot more sickness this year? I can't remember it being like this in recent memory, but I don't have any evidence that it's the actual situation.

My mother works in a doctor's office and she said there's a ton of people getting this like month long flu, and it's dropping people left and right, of all age groups.

Even those of us who got flu shots didn't escape it this year. Apparently the flu shots (which have to be made in advance of the season) missed the mark of the variations this year. So yeah, more people are getting sick this year than in years past.

I think it's the entire world, dood. Zombie plague, break out the shotguns.

Illness has run through half of the Grandkids and I have had Bronchitis which is finally clearing up after 7 days ... cher also ill with symptoms like yours, but thankfully not as severe. Indeed seems to be a year for rampant infection. We always get flu shots and they work ... I think CPLady is on the mark, new variations got us.
