    Getting sick occasionally is good for your immune system if you do not have a condition like your wife.

      The level of sick for which this is true is below the threshold of what we normally call “getting sick”. You’re always fighting off something. That’s what’s good for you. Not the getting overwhelmed and having to stay in bed amount.

      Covid is a retrovirus. It destroys your immune system.
