I get sick every year for some reason, often gastro, and the bi-yearly AC switch off/on giving me a long cold because I grew up in a country without AC. A year out of two I have a bad flu, a year out of 5, a bad otitis so painful I can't eat for a while...

Well the ONLY year of my life (I'm 33) I wasn't sick was 2020-2021. I think... the mask helped a lot. I feel like I understand now all these people telling me getting so sick every year wasn't normal...

I didn’t get a cold for just over 14 months. It was glorious. Now that I’m vaccinated I’ve been out a bit more and have been dealing with a head cold all week. If there’s a shot to stop colds, sign me up.
