I wasn't on duty yesterday when this happened, but watching our emergency response systems light up and coordinate minutes after this happened was amazing to see. Patients were taken across the city and seen and treated within minutes of arrival. No deaths, thankfully. Bravo!

Firstly, Flu (with a capital F) is not a cold. A cold is a runny nose, mild sore throat and you're fine in a couple of days. Flu (influenza virus) gives you the feeling you've been hit by a truck. High fevers, severe fatigue, body aches, lasting up to 5-7 days.
