"The flu isn’t just a health risk for the seven days or so that you’re physically sick with the virus—it can also have some lasting effects that could affect your health for weeks, months, or even permanently. Here are some of the ways the flu can be a risk factor for health issues, even after you’re feeling better.

A number of studies have linked influenza to an increased risk of heart attack and stroke, and scientists have theorized that the inflammatory response triggered by the flu can fuel the development of atherosclerosis, a contributor to heart and artery disease. "
Why does information regarding the damaging effects of Covid become "fear mongering"? The information is there to inform, not to cause fear. Why is it being informed is referred to as "fear mongering". I just do not understand that mantra and I'm truly tired of hearing it. I've heard it so much, I have become numb to the silly term, "fear mongering".
