Seasonal Flu and Coronavirus

One of the reasons I haven't gone to Mt. Shasta recently is that the flu going around there presently is about 3 times as bad as a normal one. All my friends who had this flu have been sick 2 weeks or more and one was sick a month or longer. So, even if you don't get the coronavirus the flu going around is also more deadly in that you might lose 2 weeks to a month of work as well if you get that one. They have all been tested for Coronavirus now and they all didn't have it. However, locally I heard from a health professional that there are 4 cases of Coronavirus in our local hospital here in the greater San Francisco area so likely this might be true in many hospitals across California as well.

In other words there are many many more cases than are being reported likely because testing is so very very behind everywhere. Even the patients in the Washington Convalescent home haven't been tested which is very very strange where most people have died from Coronavirus here in the U.S.

The lack of Coronavirus testing here in the U.S. makes the Trump Administration look completely inept and ridiculous to the rest of the world.
