Flu is also killing more people. It's as though people forget that these
things can kill. If you have a chest cold with congestion that lasts more
than a week you need to see a doctor or pneumonia, which kills rather
quickly, is a real possibility. The older we are the less efficiently our
systems work, so we grow more fragile. It's hard to keep in mind for those
who have never had health problems as they grow older.
