I’m getting a little exhausted with doom and gloom that fails to contextualize exactly how much worse things are than an abnormally bad flu season + pneumonia season. If you tell people that they will have lingering effects from a flu or cold, they are much more likely to report lingering effects. People are quite suggestible and medicine is complex.

You seem to be implying that stroke can be psychosomatic. That's certainly a novel take.

That’s not what I was implying at all.
