I'm on the west coast, and there were murmers of a "cold from hell" going around in Nov/Dec of 2019 until covid was officially recognized in the US around March. One of the first known detections of it was during a flu study during that time. Researchers retested some samples and it showed up. I got hit with something that made me nearly suffocate during that time and it completely freaked me out, and then a month later my roommate who also got sick suffered major organ failure, and later on heart attacks and other relentless vascular problems.
