Algae farming was good enough for the Aztecs so it's good enough for us!

TBF, it's not a complete protein so you'll have to supplement your diet with human hearts. Still, though.

Neither, coronavirus isn't a flu virus. There is a type C flu virus but it's not very common, we don't test for it in the lab I work in. She probably has a flu like illness, maybe parainfluenza or something.

I think it's mostly dangerous for immunocompromised people and young children, otherwise probably similar to the flu. Not a doctor so I don't know too much about the symptoms/risks of it.

A quick skim of wikipedia suggests parainfluenza is a significant concern in children under 5 and elderly people with certain pre-existing health conditions, but it looks more annoying than dangerous in healthy, non-elderly adults. Obligatory: I am not a health care provider.

I'm fond of heating a mug of whiskey, honey, and lemon juice. Works better than elderberry and if it doesn't then I'm at least sauced.

I wouldn't call it a nothingburger since a large proportion of China is under lockdown at the moment. China hasn't had negative economic growth in a long time and considering how questionable the numbers come out of there I don't think they can say ''6% GDP growth this year'' no matter how hard they fudge the numbers.

They've been making up GDP numbers out of thin air for decades. They can do whatever they want with it. It's just even less plausible than usual.
