I hate people who downplay Covid by saying it will be ‘just like flu’ as though flu is something that doesn’t floor you for the best part of a fortnight of agony, weird fever dreams and endless shitting.

I can only assume they’ve never had actual influenza and are mistaking it for a bad cold they once had.

In Northern Ireland "flu kills" and "it's not just a flu" signs are plastered all over ambulances and bus stops / bus ads signs etc.

If you can still walk out of bed, it's not the flu I was told.

I can't remember who said it, but I always use the £20 note test:

You are lying on a sofa next to a window and a £20 note lands on the window sill outside. Are you able to open the window and get it?
