Roll call on for the flu sick people!

So I was at internext and had some great time with my crew, got back home and guess what every single one of us and people we know are sick with fever and cough.

I'm just wondering how many other people that went to the show got sick as well.

I know CE Cash crew got sick as well as Ron Levi.
Atlas Multimedia Chris
Mike from Wicked

anyone else?

Of all the shows that I've been to, I have never ever gotten sick... but then again, I actually get a full night of sleep every night. :-)

Every year in vegas, everyone comes back sick as fuck. (not just hungover)

I'm starting to think its some sort of conspiracy.

Then again, it could be alcohol depressing the immune system for 4 days + large crowds of people = numbers game

the people around you were no doubt drinking.....

consider it the domino effect....1 person gets sick, followed by the next, the next etc. more people around you sick = more chance of contracting the virus, via a sneeze or handshake

i suggest people take a small bottle of hand sanitizer to shows

Vegas makes people sick. I have a 3 day rule for that city and I broke and I am paying for it.

I too got sleep but there are just so many germs there. I even carried hand sanitizer with me for after I touched stuff or shook people's hands.

Yet I am still sick.

However it was well worth it as I did a ton of biz so this is the price I pay so be it!

Of those that are sick how many had their flu shots this year?
Of those same people how many carried hand sanitizer and used it often as per directions?
Of same people how many washed their hands for at least thirty seconds of soaping up and at least another thirty seconds washing in hot water often?

I have been literally floored by the flu. My fiance is sick as well now. I took tons of vitamins, ate well, drank lots of water, used hand sanitizer, washed my hands often, even had a humidifier in the room and I still got sicker than I have been in years.

All of the above, plus lots of sleep, healthy eating (vegetarian), etc.

Still sick.

I am a wuss I do the nyquil theraflu method.
I purchase a bottle of nighttime nyquil and a box of nyquil geltabs.
I also purchase a few bottles of gatorade.
Urinal is optional as are throw up bags.

I crack open a gatorade and then pop 2 nyquil geltabs and drink a glass of hot theraflu. I also pre open the nyquil bottle so the lid is not locked in place and set it on bedside table along with my gatoraid. I proceed to pass out.
When I wake I take a swig of nyquil and a gulp of gatoraid and pass out again. I continue this process until about 48 hours have passed.

I didn't even go to the show and got a nasty bout of the flu/bronchitis.

On my 7th day of antibiotics now and feeling ok, but it was rough there for awhile.

I think working from home shields you from alot of the germs floating around out there and when you go away and you're in airports, airplanes, public restrooms etc....you end up with a big germ cocktail that your system wasn't ready for.

I had the stomach flu at 5am the day I had to get on the plane to get to Vegas, but I felt fine by the next day. When I do get sick it's not for very long.
