The sore throat I was developing seems to be nearly gone already, without having developed into anything too severe. The cold also progressed to my nose, where it has managed nothing more dramatic than making one nostril slightly runny. I feared much worse.

You got the flu vaccine recently?
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Not recently. A month or two ago.
There has been a cold type thingy going around at work, I assume it is that.
Cendana@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Yeah… my wife and I both had the vaccine. Both got sick 2 or 3 weeks later but was relatively mild compared to previous years. (never took a vaccine until 2020ish)

I have been having flu vaccines for over a decade and have never become ill afterwards. I think trying to link a cold which is currently circulating at work to a flu vaccine two months ago is a bit of a stretch.
