This person's experience:
“I got the flu between Christmas and New Year’s. I’m still fighting it,” he told Global News. [1]
I know so many people[2] in this situation. Not a similar situation, but literally, they got influenza itself around the holidays in Dec 2025 and they still have residual symptoms, today in Feb 2026.
Mind you, the quote is from a person in 2013, a decade after they had SARS1, and the people I know have had SARS2, not SARS1.
Wouldn't it be great if our health system treated SARS2 as seriously as SARS1, and protected the vulnerable? The vulnerable being anyone who uses their brain or body or both.

[2] "so many" being five. Which is a lot considering the sample pool size! It never used to be normal to get sick for weeks and months at a time!
