Thank you for this. I am starting to believe like you and Dr Andrew Kaufman. My wife and I get sick every Aug - Sept, but mostly Aug. It's like clockwork. It's almost freaky, to the day or week over last 5 yrs. She gets sick a little more than me. I take vitamins & work out & non Covid vaxxed, but drink, smoke weed, she took Covid Pfizer shot 1&2 , does not work out, and does no extra recreational partaking. She has provably gotten sick 3 out of 5 yrs. Me only 2 out of 5. Her sickness is worse and lasts longer than mine. We also don't always get sick at same time or same yr even though we are near each other constantly. I'm starting to believe it's because Aug is end of Summer and near Fall. The Earth goes thru a change and so do I and my wife. Temps start to change and we start to detox. If it was a germ, wouldn't we get sick everytime one of us gets sick?
