Re: Girl 12 in critical condition with brain eating Amoeba

By the way, here's my recipe for fighting the flu. Rather simple but it comes back to soaking in a hot water source in 30 minute intervals throughout the day, in this case the best I have is my hot tub in lieu of the springs, followed by 10 minutes in the sauna shed, followed by a warm to cool shower, then sleep two hours ... and repeat. Before soaking, I apply menthol under my nose for congestion zapping. The flu is a virus. Antibiotics do not work against viruses, only bacteria. Heat does. This is why you get a fever. Your body is trying to fight the virus by driving it out using heat. By soaking, you are helping your body elevate the temperature and keep it at a constant high threshold. Hence, if you have the flu, best thing to do is hit the hot springs, or equivalent. Just don't infect everyone else and know your body's limits.
