Jens Finkhäuser 🌻@clacke @strypey It's not a cold at all, it's a virus that, aside from producing cold-like symptoms, causes cardiovascular damage (primarily, as is normal for these things, in the smaller blood vessels like those powering your lungs and brain), and which leaves the immune system to deal with a persistent irritant, which produces a long term immunoresponse.
Please stop calling it flu-like. What looks flu-like are just the outward symptoms of our immune system going under extreme load.
