To be clear, Iโm absolutely not 100% nerding out about this right now.
Thank you for sharing your #flustory Mara.
It wasnโt my LAST bout, but I had the flu the week before we stared filming Matilda. I was so feverish I was hallucinating. I was better by the time we started shooting, but we ended up having to ADR most of my lines because I still sounded a little sick.
@DrPChouinard My son woke up with a low-grade fever and died that afternoon. Influenza B caused cardiac arrest. He was two and in perfect health. I knew the flu was serious. I didn't know the flu could do that.

Wow.
Iโm absolutely blown away.
Thank you to everyone whoโs shared their #FluStory so far.
Hopefully some will be moved by them & chose to protect themselves and their loved ones.
Feel free to comment and RT via this tweet.

A friendly reminder:
Anyone who tells you that โthey had the flu and it wasnโt that badโ 100% did not have the flu to begin with.
(or was vaccinated and had milder symptoms because of it)
Most people will remember the EXACT week(s) they had their last bout with the flu.
#FluStory ๐ฐ
@DrPChouinard @CZEdwards Twice. September 1995; three weeks until recovered, lost 14lbs and hearing in one ear. October 2001 two weeks to recover. Both times ended up in the ER. Fever so bad I had L-punctures to rule out meningitis. Flu shots religiously since and never had it since.
Borrowing your #flustory hashtag @DrJenGunter, itโs for a good cause I promise.
We have a window of opportunity to get as many of us protected against influenza, before peak #fluseason arrives in most parts of the US and Canada.
Please feel free to comment with your own #FluStory.
We need to counter the message that influenza โisnโt a big dealโ.
Life-altering consequences and death due to influenza are not nearly as uncommon as some would think.
#GetYourFluShot
Mine was my first year of family medicine residency.
I still remember the ER doc taking one look at me dragging myself in that night and saying:
โYou look worse than every single patient here. Go home.โ
I obliged & took nearly a week to recuperate.

If we stop vaccinating, outbreaks occur.
Know the facts: any licensed vaccine has been rigorously tested to make sure it is safe and effective for you and your family. #VaccinesWork ๐https://t.co/1HiuB5sCFr

Shannah Anderson was 17 when the flu caused severe pneumonia & severe ARDS, which needed to be managed with 4 weeks of #ECMO in the ICU. Her parents were told to say their goodbyes because she only had a 20% chance of survival. Get your flu shot! #flustory #SMACC #VaccinesWork

A candid compilation of #flustory tweets compiled by @Vaccinestoday.
The flu is not as harmless as people think.

#FluStory: this doctor started a Twitter thread to show the real impact of influenza https://t.co/fR6FaSRL8N
Flu can hurt, and it being "just" an emotional pain doesn't make that pain trivial. That was the first time in years I missed getting my flu shot, and it nearly cost me the chance to see a loved one that one last time.
#flustory
Flu kills. It could have killed my mother and my mother-in-law, both immune-compromised by cancer. It cripples. It destroys lives.
And it very nearly stopped me from seeing MiL before she died, because no airline would have let me board with obvious severe flu.

.@DrJenGunter's on to something here! When we share our #flu stories we help others to see that the value of flu #vaccines is in preventing the worse outcomes - like hospitalization and death. If you've got a #flustory to share, let us know. https://t.co/KvqxVey5ae
Share and read about the #flustory online. #Influenza is a big deal and #vaccination is important. #nursesempower
I am so tired of hearing how influenza isnโt a โbig dealโ from anti vaccine forces. Personal stories can sway opinion. If facts did, we wouldnโt have falling vaccination rates. So if you have a #flustory to share please add it. Maybe it will change some minds. Iโll go 1st
This year my 1yo was hospitalized with febrile seizures from flu. Made full recovery in 48 hrs. Would most likely have been much worse had we not vaccinated. None of the rest of us got it because we all got the shot even though itโs not recommended for kids here in CH #flustory
