As a 52 year old man, I have it, and it's not a simple cold. I'm healthy, fit and eat well, and it still worked on me. My wife, 47 years old, had it last month, and it wasn't easy for her. This is NOT only a childhood disease. I realize that young children are more at risk for complications, it's a shame that there's a misconception that it's a childhood disease.
One of the best. I always appreciate his expertise.
My son was going to travel across to visit but we decided to skip this visit.
?? have the rounds of covid and vaccines messed our immune systems sufficiently to dampen our immune response to viral infections? T cell exhaustion? Especially in respiratory system?
Thank you both for providing this important information.
Great information, thank you!
I’m a middle aged adult with RSV and it feels like I have pneumonia. Don’t know why everyone says it’s like a mild cold.
