I had a bad case of the flu over 40 years ago, was very sick (fever, chills, delirious, couldn't sleep well, sweats, etc.) for over a week. Every year since then I have gotten the flu shot and I have not once had classic flu symptoms again. I might have had a mild case and thought I had the cold or was asymptomatic but have not been that sick again.

If it is like COVID, vaccination protects against a severe case so well that antivirals don't help much more. https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/amo ... n-symptoms

Antivirals are a pea shooter compared to vaccination but vaccination only works if you get it before showing symptoms.

I wonder if the OP even goes fishing at all....just sayin'..... :roll:
Perhaps Quora would be a better venue for them.
