No cure so you gotta rest. Nose is stuffed so you gotta mouth breathe. Throat is dry from mouth breathing. Dry throat makes it painful to swallow. Pain keeps you from sleeping and recovering. Lack of sleep leads to worse symptoms like piercing headaches. Need to rest to get rid of the headaches. Headache and swallowing is too painful to rest properly. Lack of rest perpetuates headaches, nose congestion, dry throat, painful swallowing.
What is this BS

Ah man too many variants to keep track of.
When I got COVID, it luckily wasn’t too bad. None of the “loss of senses” stuff.
Just had some weakness and reduced metabolism (ok, I did get pretty slim in the wrong places) for ~ a month and was then kinda fine.
The second time I got it, only a little weakness. I even walked over to the clinic for testing, alone.
And I’d call that very lucky, considering that the common flu, the next year, ended up being worse on me.
