I sure didn't have this on my bingo card, did you? 
I've read it can hang in the air for up to 90 hours.
And I got the flu anyway, back in April, and felt really rotten for ages. And just as we're finally not freaking out about Covid, now there's one more illness to worry about... 
I know it's a crazy time we are livinv in. 
Which have protected recent generations. 
And many of us who are old enough to have been vaccinated against older diseases might have lost immunity.
I had titers done for a job some years ago. All I recall is they said I was still protected against everything except German Measles. I wish I could recall what all they tested for. 😏
Last year, I got both a flu and a pneumonia shot at the same time - which I knew which arm was which since my left arm hurt for ages. They have the MMR - mumps, measles and rubella (German Measles). And now they have MMRV - which includes chicken pox (varicella). I got the first two by the time I was in second or third grade - then I came down with German Measles when I came home for vacation from college. 
I've never known anyone personally who has had German Measles. Was it awful?
I had regular measles as a kid.
Last fall I had covid, flu, & tetanus/tdap. My arm never hurt at all.
I remember tetanus shots when I was younger. Ouch!
