Some unknown virus is going around
Mar 22nd, 2025 at 3:51pm
 

I have been crook as of early yesterday.
The highest temp I got was 38.1 so far.

I got a multi-virus test from Chemist Warehouse.
It tests for : Covid, RSV and Flu A&B.

I don’t have any of those viruses – all negative.  See pic.

I wonder what I picked up?
I’ll retest tomorrow.

No - only Coles supermarkets -
one at a shopping center and one as a separate supermarket.

There is always someone coughing and sneezing there.    Angry

My mother died recently from a mystery virus (but she also had pneumonia, which was listed as the cause of death on her death certificate).

The doctors in the hospital said they had no idea what it was, which meant they had no idea how to treat it.

They told her they could do some more tests and study the virus in a petri dish, but it would take a few days for the virus to grow and then another few days to test which drugs would be the best to treat it with (and then the drugs would have to come from overseas, which could take another week).

They said she didn't have that long to wait, as the virus was so aggressive that she would be lucky to survive another 48 hours.

She passed away three days later.

They never found out what the virus was   Undecided

That's terrible - we never know for whom the bell tolls -
it could be me this time -
although 1 hour after a couple of Panadols my temp returns to normal
and I don't feel too bad.

I'm sure you'll be okay.

My mother was in her mid/late 80s, in a wheelchair, fed through a tube in her stomach, very frail and inflicted with many ailments.

It was just her time, sadly.

Thankfully, the mystery virus enabled her to have a very peaceful death.

As the doctors had no way to treat it, they hooked up a little machine to her stomach with morphine and sedatives.

She sent herself off to a painless, peaceful end while I sat by her bed.

But anyway, you're not old and frail so you'll be fine.

Yes Greggy,
I reckon I'll survive this one.

Actually - a temp is a good sign  -
it means the body has recognised the virus and is fighting it.

It's probably just TDS.

Take two Slovenian hookers and go to bed.

If symptoms persist, consult your local sex trafficker.

Greggy,
why do you always have to turn every thread into something sexual and
something about Trump?

You don't have TDS do you?

Not at all. He probably pisses in their pockets when he meets them and they can't wait to get away from him unless he's offering Slovenian hookers.

I am feeling a lot better today than I was yesterday.
Looks like it's only a 2 day virus - a bit like when I had Covid twice before.
I'll redo the triple test tomorrow and see if it picks up anything.

Not clever bobby.

Taking paracetamol.

Panadol is a paracetamol.

Wow !    ......who knew ?

The BBC knew, back in 2011

Did the Australian government tell us ?

Did the government fund an information SAFETY campaign,
to warn Australians of the danger of 'taking slightly too much' paracetamol ?

No !

In 2020 the government banned access to
a proven safe to use anti-parasitic drug,
which has had 3.7 billion doses administered [to humans] in forty years [in many 3rd world nations].

But the government are happy, to let us buy paracetamol brands, off supermarket shelves, anywhere in Australia.

Q.
What's the hoo-ha with paracetamol ?

Read on.....



Google.....
Researchers in the UK have found that 'taking slightly too much' of the common analgesic paracetamol over an extended period can cause acute liver failure.
And that paracetamol-induced liver injury was a leading cause of requirement for liver transplants, in the UK.

Liver transplant associated with paracetamol overdults from the seven-country SALT study

Abstract
Aims: Acute drug overdose, especially with paracetamol, may cause acute liver failure leading to registration for transplantation (ALFT). Population statistics and between-country differences for ALFT related to overdose have been poorly described. The aim of the present study was to evaluate overdose ALFT in the multi-country Study of Acute Liver Transplantation (SALT).

My temp rocketed up and I felt very sick again.

I retested myself again today - still negative for all the virus tests:

I'm a scientist - that's what we do - we test for everything to find the cause.

If I go to see a doctor I'm sure he'd be interested to know the results of those tests.

I have never been prescribed one of those tests by a doctor.

You cannot test for everything Bobby. That's kind of the opposite of what real scientists do.

Your choice.


bobby,

I learnt, what paracetamol can do to a persons liver.

Learning THAT,     .....my choice,    ....is i will never willingly take paracetamol again.

.

bobby,

'Feeling sick' is the body, YOUR body, 'telling you'......that there is something in your body, which the body wants to expel.


bobby,

'Feeling sick' is a SYMPTOM.

If you decide to take a medication to BLOCK the [unpleasant] 'Feeling sick' SYMPTOM,
the body, YOUR body, will probably stop trying to expel whatever it is, that YOUR body wants to expel.

Removing a SYMPTOM by taking a medication, can stop you 'experiencing' sickness.

But it can also stop you 'experiencing'    the healing crisis,    while you are 'Feeling sick'.

And, taking a medication does not always address the CAUSE of an illness that we have.


WWW search.....
"healing crisis", wellness


Personally......
If i myself, was 'Feeling sick'.......i would 1/ physically rest, and 2/ choose, to only eat liquid meals [e.g. veggie soups], until i feel better.

Digesting 'heavy' food [while we are 'sick'], can consume a lot of our bodily energy.

p.s.
Yadda is not a doctor.

You cannot test for everything Bobby. That's kind of the opposite of what real scientists do.




But then why are such tests available at your friendly local Chemist?

Well it's true - there are just too many viruses to test for:

ABOUT COLDS AND FLU
A cold is caused by a virus that affects the nose,
throat and upper airways. There are more than
200 different viruses that can cause a cold.
The flu (influenza) is caused by more severe viruses. The
rapid changes in viruses also result in different
types of seasonal flu.
Adults usually have three to four colds each year

Bobby, why are you bothering with these tests?
Will it make any difference to what you do if you find out that you have one of those viruses?



I'm a scientist - that's what we do - we test for everything to find the cause.

If I go to see a doctor I'm sure he'd be interested to know the results of those tests.


I have never been prescribed one of those tests by a doctor.

You're a smart man Bobby. You figure it out.

Cough 3 times on a Chinese person. If they react, it's Covid.

There could be a number of reasons:

(1) To provide information that could be used to evolve a
comprehensive plan to isolate the patient from others and to
select the right medications to aid in a faster recovery.

(2) to make money out of hypochondriacs.

After more than a week I still have left over remnants of the virus.

I think it takes 2 weeks to fully recover?

What if it is a bacterium?

You ate something bad (quite likely considering the slop you photograph before eating!)
