    Whenever I had the flu, I just went through it. Maybe some medicine to feel less sick, but nothing to actually prevent it from killing me.

    We all have an immune system that is used to combating the flu.

    The germs you’d get in contact with from a basic lack of hygiene, that’s what will get you.

    Note that I’m a healthy 30-something person, so the flu is not much of an issue for me. I don’t want to disminish its deadlines on people with lower immune systems, but they would suffer in environments with bad hygiene even worse.
