80% of my business is in Park City/Alta/Snowbird and I am CONVINCED

(in spite of several CB "armchair doctors" telling me I don't know what I'm talking about) that I had this right after the Sundance Film Fest at the end of January.

Fever - check
dry cough that lasted weeks- check
complete lack of energy - check
difficulty breathing - check

I was in bed for the better part of 10 days and took an additional 2 weeks until I felt "right" again

I will be one of the first in line for an antibody test when they are available in Provo.

Sounds like the flu. Otherwise, how did they miss all the excess deaths?

Are you sure there has been a spike in the total number of deaths in the world?

This is what it looks like when it hits hard. It's easy to spot.

"Expected Deaths" don't seem to show a flu season bump

Under normal circumstances, the vast majority of deaths are age related.

In that case it's dangerous to assume you've had it already without confirmation
