I have a cold. It’s been a few days and has knocked me on my ass. It was so bad, I tested for COVID twice—both negative. My breathing and hacking and coughing got so bad, I went to my doctor and tested my for flu and strep—both negative. The final verdict, I have a cold in early July which I believe President Biden also had or may still have.
This cold is the worst one I’ve had in my life. I can’t recall any cold making it more difficult to breathe (meaning I had to use an inhaler which, for me, is highly unusual), to sleep (even with over the counter meds), to swallow (worst sore throat in my lifetime and hard to speak)—and it included a terrible headache to boot. I’m a very active person and having to sit or lay around while recovering drives me nuts.
I’m guessing this is similar to what President Biden was going through with his cold. I’m a lot younger than the President and this put me on the couch for a few days. What I get from my experience and what President Biden did (went to the debate probably feeling like crap) and continuing to go to rallies afterwards, he’s in a lot better shape than we think or that the shitty corporate mainstream media is reporting.
