Here’s the tweet Talarico’s spokesperson put out two days after his candidate’s “bad” flu was said to have been diagnosed and he dropped off the trail. True, it doesn’t say that Talarico would be at any of the events. Still seems discordant, especially since I can’t find Ennis himself mentioning the flu while Talarico was absent, and there’s a void from 10/2 to 10/9. He should feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

(No mention of the flu on @TeamTalerico page either, FWIW.)
