Doubt he'd start nor get many minutes. Maybe final 10 of the game
 
Except, unlike flu it can cause lung damage, organ failure, and other long term issues.
Hmm. Wrong on all accounts


Flu Complications

Most people who get flu will recover in a few days to less than two weeks, but some people will develop complications (such as pneumonia) as a result of flu, some of which can be life-threatening and result in death.

Sinus and ear infections are examples of moderate complications from flu, while pneumonia is a serious flu complication that can result from either influenza virus infection alone or from co-infection of flu virus and bacteria. Other possible serious complications triggered by flu can include inflammation of the heart (myocarditis), brain (encephalitis) or muscle (myositis, rhabdomyolysis) tissues, and multi-organ failure (for example, respiratory and kidney failure). Flu virus infection of the respiratory tract can trigger an extreme inflammatory response in the body and can lead to sepsis, the body’s life-threatening response to infection. Flu also can make chronic medical problems worse. For example, people with asthma may experience asthma attacks while they have flu, and people with chronic heart disease may experience a worsening of this condition triggered by flu.
 
This post actually sums up some of our "fans"
We are still in the grips of a world wide pandemic.
People are falling by the wayside every few hours. I know our workplace is riddled with it. Be it actually Covid. Or close contacts.
So by the rules in place you have to self isolate.

And then your first thoughts are - You hope he's not another let down - You do right to put FFS in your message.
As that's what we all think when we see you've posted.
Fans fault
 
Dunno how it works tbh. Can only go off personal experience having a son with one having been born with a hole in his heart.

I'm pretty sure people can pickup mild murmurs from stress or during periods of illness, but they go over time. I think his medical would have picked up something more serious, so it must have developed as a result of catching the virus.

Just typical of our luck really although a murmur in isolation shouldn't be enough to cause any issues. Obviously an underlying problem could (if there is one).
