Just my opinion! When you're sick your sick. It's a bad virus you get from other people just like getting a cold.
Mostly true but in us "older folks" the flu, if that's actually what it is, can lead to pneumonia and other bad stuff quicker than in young'uns and so it's better to be checked especially ones lungs when you feel really bad. Besides, if you have medicare and/or other health insurance you can't be throwing away too much money if any at all.
