45 years old and I've had Omicron since Christmas, still sick, still tired. I miss the flu.

The flu can also make you miserable for weeks. Not sure why you'd miss it.

While it 'can', it never has for me.

I had the delta variant a few months back and it was so mild, I first thought it was just allergies. 2nd day, got a little bit of a tingly nose, stuffy, couldn't quite smell, but could still taste fine. 3rd day, same symptoms, 4th day, I was almost better completely. Fast forward about 1.5 months after I had that Delta coronavirus variant, and I got bronchitis from my young daughter. My ears became stuffed up for weeks, I had a bad cough for nearly 20 days before it was out of my system. The Delta variant was nothing to me. Here's more of that "anecdata."

> I got bronchitis from my young daughter

Bronchitis is not a communicable disease.

Bronchitis is inflammation of the lining of the bronchial tubes which is typically caused by either smoking or viruses.

If you don't smoke, then what you got from your young daughter was almost certainly a virus.

Could have been influenza, or the common cold, or covid again.

Yes, sorry. The virus that caused my daughter, wife, and I to develop bronchitis in the same way after our daughter was diagnosed at her pediatrician to have gotten some virus that caused the bronchitis.
