1. really don't like this term, it suggests they have somehow merged

where instead it is simply bad luck and concurrent infections

[Ms. Toad]

9. +1000

It absolutely implies that - and, like you, I don't think that is the case.

Assuming you and I are correct, it is a really, really bad idea to imply they have merged into a single disease.

2. good lord, we're going biblical

8. Nah

There’s 0.0 chance this hasn’t already happened in the last 2 years.

10. Wear a mask everywhere. Change it OFTEN.

Social Distance.
Get the boosters. Get the flu shot.

Buy a Delta 8 candy bar at your local cbd shop.
Cut off a fingertip portion of it to eat.
Drink a glass of Chardonnay.
Have a good cup of coffee.
Eat some veggies when you get the munchies.

Add 2 Tylenol and a baby aspirin for arthritis pain. IMHO. Your mileage may differ.

14. We got Gonorona in this town!

Some parts of town are worse than other parts!

[Laura PourMeADrink]

15. Couldn't decide if that was gon as in gone or gon

As in gonorrhea

Is that Austin?

[LeftInTX]

17. That's a picture of Amsterdam! And it's gonorrhea

I'm sure there are people with both gonorrhea and corona virus in every corner of the globe.

I did not want to post a picture of a red light district that objectified women, so this was the only one I could find that didn't.

3. Atlanta hospital ERs have been detecting coinfection for some time now.

This may be the first PCR with genetic isolate testing, but co-infection based on rapid influenza and COVID-19 anitgen tests have been picking it up for several weeks--mainly in elderly, it appears from colleagues.

4. I know of two college kids

who both had cv and Flu at the same time. One late August/early September and the other a few weeks ago. The first kid was CV vazxed but it was so early for flu he had t gotten shot yet.

2nd kid was also CV vaxxed and I don’t know if he had flu shot.

Both recovered completely.

[ColinC]

5. Get that flu shot.

6. My kid's friend has Covid and their mom has Flu.

We've all been exposed. Just found some tests at Publix for some afternoon swabbing.

Her school is about to post a huge number tonight too.

7. In other news, Weird Al has said he is not going to remix "My Bologna" to "My Flurona"

It's just too much at this point. Especially since Omicron is sneaking through vaccinations.
And with the kids returning to school, we're just going to see more of this. Lucky thing the girls got their flu vaccines last month along with COVID shots. Hopefully they will be asymptomatic when they finally get a breakthrough infection

11. We got CedarFevAllerRhinoVirFluRona here!

Probably all over most of Texas!

I think most states at least have RhinoVirFluRona and most states in the south have some sort of AllerRhinoVirFluRona

Central Texas adds Cedar Fever to the mix!

[YP_Yooper]

12. So true

My friend's son went partying over New Years... and got sick

Not like he's saying he has the ClapArona

(and yup, he got both)

[LeftInTX]

13. LOL!

[Meowmee]

16. What bad luck

When I had it I had a reactivation of EBV, a study was done in China I think about covid patients who had that as well. Yes, not a good term. Especially since O variant may possibly have developed from a patient who had hiv and who developed chronic covid.

18. Cabin Fever is the worst.
