Morena! Caught a dose of a chest/throat infection recently, boy, that has made me feel really bad, won’t be doing much today.
There are heaps of bugs going around at the moment! I hope you feel better soon 🙂
Thanks, me too!! I was at the doctors week and a bit back, and the nurse I saw was masked and told me she’d recently seen some very ill kiddies. So maybe it’s a dose from that, IDK. Go to the docs for one issue, then come away with a new one!!
Yeah someone I know had their 9 month old in ICU with RSV recently. I've had vomiting, fevers, and cold symptoms across my kids this week.
There's a flu study in the Wellington region that publishes the types of illness they have found. The one on the website here is a week out of date but shows what's in the air around Wellington:

Oh, what a worry to have a little one in ICU, hope yours are getting better. Interesting data, don’t think anywhere has avoided it.
The one in ICU is out now, I saw them a couple of days ago and they were pretty happy looking. I don't think it was ever at a concerning level, the ICU was just for 24/7 monitoring.
