Curious about the flu
🗣️ DISCUSSION 💬
Like a hurricane is seasonal, could the common cold be similar? .. What if it's just a weak immune system that gets effected with a cold.. and it's an age old, seasonal, event, much like hurricanes? A certain criteria is required.. and it happens.
is it possible the flu doesn't actually spread?
I like that we can think outside the box. In this case, I would say I disagree, simply based on first hand experiences, where one person gets infected and typically many members that household also get the flu. As far as the exact mechanism in which this happens, we have the virus model which seems to make sense, but I don't study viruses under high powered microscopes or anything like that. So, I'm basing my understanding off the current science, despite science losing more credibility every day.
If solarsavior is correct,
"Supposedly due to decreased vitamin D levels in winter. Your skin makes vitamin D when exposed to sun. Less sun exposure = less vitamin D."
then, there could be a genetic factor in this regarding how the body stores and utilizes Vitamin D. It would explain why a cold might run through a family -- because they are all genetically similar.
Very interesting!
Science that does not look at and report reality is the problem, because that is not science.
