people have been apart so much and we were wearing masks (I still do because of medication I take) our bodies have forgotten-know there must be a better word—how to fight off viruses and bugs. Many people haven’t gotten the newest Covid vaccine or flu shot, so they spread that around. Then there is RSV which there is no vaccine for. Years ago in the late 1970’s I worked in a daycare for a couple of years. I would catch everything that came along. Don’t really remember the big push for flu shots back then.
