What was said was very clearly explained. However, I think some important detail was omitted. Who can be treated vs who should be treated was not addressed; nor was consideration of risk/benefit ratio of side effects to expected clinical improvement. The video implied that everybody with flu (in allowed age groups) should be treated. Also, how long it takes for the more sensitive test was not stated. How about the role of clinical diagnosis without testing? I would also like to have seen statement about relatively low frequency of vomiting compared to respiratory and febrile symptoms.
