Norovirus Cases Are Surging. These Are The Most Common Symptoms Doctors Are Seeing Right Now.
The highly contagious virus is having a "banner year" spreading throughout the country, according to experts.
A historic flu season
“Flu continues to hit hard across the country. New data released today show outpatient visits for influenza-like illness (visits to the doctor for fever plus either cough or sore throat) have climbed to 7.8%, up from last week's already high 7.7%.”
My feed is 100% mass disease & premature death, with a smattering of “positive content” thrown in for good measure.

Just giving y'all a heads up. (Hospital Administrator guy here) : r/HermanCainAward
“Just giving you guys a heads up. Unfortunately, I think we are headed for another pandemic and to be honest, I think we are already in the middle of it. I have basically 5 hospitals and over 100 clinics in our health system, and I have not seen it this bad since covid slammed us. All of our area hospitals are full, we can no longer depend on the CDC for truth on anything, and many doctors are sounding the alarm.
We just opened our drive through testing facilities again. We are encouraging telehealth visits instead of in person if at all possible.
Right now Covid, Flu, and RSV are running rampant... However, its this new mystery illness that is really going fucking nuts. In my direct department of 80+ people, I had 24 out with it in one week. Several of those turned into pneumonia .. 2 were hospitalized.”

Dead on Arrival: The Signals We’re Ignoring… Again
“Dead on Arrival: The Signals We’re Ignoring… Again
In NYC, when someone dies at home, a green flier appears on the door—a quiet but grim signal of loss. The medical term? Dead on arrival.
Another signal? Searches for "refrigerator trucks" are rising again. Last time they peaked was 2020, when NYC ran out of mortuary capacity.
Meanwhile:
➡️ NYC hospitals are now subtyping for H5N1.
➡️ The city is experiencing its worst flu season since 1997.
➡️ Influenza-Like Illness (ILI) outpatient visits last week hit 13.6%—the second highest ever recorded in NYC’s 2010-2025 dataset.
➡️ The only time it was worse? First week of April 2020 (14.2%).
We’ve seen these warning signs before.
Are we paying attention this time?”
