@metrouk: A hantavirus cruise passenger is in critical condition after doctors on board dismissed her flu-like symptoms as anxiety. The French woman was reportedly having coughing fits onboard, but as her symptoms briefly improved and she didn’t have a fever, doctors initially ruled out hantavirus. However, her condition rapidly worsened after she left the ship, and she’s now in intensive care at a hospital in Paris. #hantavirus #worldhealthorganization #worldnews

As a chronically ill woman that is constantly dismissed by doctors all I can say is, this checks out.

For the record, anxiety doesn’t have the same symptoms as the flu.

This is why it is so hard to place your trust in the experts. The experts are not experting, at all.

My breast cancer was also anxiety, so I’m not surprised.
