Had the same problem around the middle of August this year when it was so freaking hot. Took a road trip to Knoxville, TN to pick up an RV and caught some kind of creeping crud. It didn't stop me but man, I was miserable 'til the end of September and to be honest I'm still coughing up crap. When asked what I thought it was, walking pneumonia is the exact term I used to describe it.

Speaking of pneumonia, could you please talk about the Prevnar pneumococcal vaccine for infants? It has gone from Prevnar 7 to 13 to 15 and now its up to 20 and that's what they're pushing on my little grandson. I heard Dr. Peter McCullough say that the efficacy in adults in only 9 percent and it appears to have adverse events associated with it. I would greatly appreciate your knowledge on the subject.

That was my first thought, partially тАШcause it had been in the newz so much. I also was concerned I might have aspiration pneumonia from a horrible event a week earlier (food poisoning ЁЯдв). Without going in for a test, it came down to symptoms: biggest being lack of fever - not 100% determinative but sufficient in my opinion, and how the illness progressed.
