Then you’d see an uptick in pneumonia or flu cases, don’t know about the former but on More or Less today they said this winter we’d had unusually low flu hospitalisations.
How do we k ow there wasn't? (Obviously not on the scale it is now).
My wife knows 3 people who were hospitalised around Christmas with a flu that caused respitory issues.
Of course, that diagnosis may have been correct.

Maybe the corona ate all the flu!
But you're right, you would expect that which is why I wouldn't hang my hat on this theory but I wouldn't totally dismiss it just yet either.
Sore throat is the cough dry?My girlfriend was coughing like mad last night and was also sweating profusely. Her temp is down today but she still has an aggressive cough.
It's hard to know if it's the virus but I'll be no doubt be getting the same in due course.

Thousands of 15-minute home tests for coronavirus will be delivered by Amazon to people self-isolating with symptoms or will go on sale on the high street within days, according to Public Health England (PHE), in a move that could restore many people’s lives to a semblance of pre-lockdown normality.
Prof Sharon Peacock, the director of the national infection service at PHE, told MPs on the science and technology committee that mass testing in the UK would be possible by next week.
I've had a persistent cough for a couple of months now and some weird symptoms. Doctor couldn't work out what it was, even sent me for an x-ray to check it wasn't lung cancer!It'd be absolute magic if what I had in February was it because although I had basically zero energy and was either burning up or freezing for three weeks, it didn't destroy my lungs as I fear it could.

He said there was something unusual going around so who knows, maybe more people have had it than we realise. Although if that was the case you have to look into why it didn't spread earlier.

Does sound like the symptoms we've been told to look out for. Hopefully you can both go down together!No sore throat as of yet but the cough is dry.

Sounds like she’ll be too ill for any of that mate, usually all it takes is a slight headache.
This sounds promising, home test kits possibly available for delivery or in chemists fairly soon
UK coronavirus mass home testing to be made available 'within days'
Strangely, end of January my 10year old lad had a horrific cough. Dry, and continuous. Kept up a lot of the night slight temperature and fatigue for a couple of days too. I remember saying at the time 'I've never heard a cough like it' . Doctior said it was a respiratory infection but not chest infection and seemed a bit stumped.
There are too many of these instances of corona like symptoms from December in this country online for it to not be a coincidence.
But again as said in the thread, maybe its just straw clutching, but lets hope against hope that it does turn out to be the case. Wouldn't explain all these deaths though
Six months now it seems. Mine's been extended to mid-October.Mine's due in April - haven't booked it in yet. If I can't get it booked anywhere, I shall continue to drive it if I have to!
I had the same mid February
Doctors couldn’t work out what it was
Had the X-ray etc but no diagnosis. Especially when I told them I was not a smoker
Really deep persistent cough but a really strange depth to it
Off work for around 10 days
My daughter has been coughing for three weeks. Non-stop dry cough.Ive had that recently. Still got the cough.
Bloody stupid if you ask me especially since half the houses round here face the wrong way.
