First we raised emotionally and/or intellectually fragile children & now we are raising immunologically fragile children - seems our progeny are doomed (which I don’t doubt they are from our unsustainable federal bureaucracy - which differs vastly from the reasons for which they believe they are doomed).
Growing up in the 80’s was great! Even though we were generally rather poor when I was little my parents risked everything on a business and through their hard work & perseverance they made it prosper. I am painfully aware of their sacrifices and have personally benefited greatly from their success. I do not take that for granted. Now we do not generally struggle, but I worry about my daughter’s ability to struggle - it’s so difficult to get her to do “hard things.” But, thankfully I don’t worry about her immune system as we spend lots of time outside digging in dirt.
The immunity debt is a good way to conceptualize the seeming overall uptick in disease burden.
While the lockdown and social isolation protocols of "Zero COVID" almost certainly play a role here, I see a growing probability that the COVID inoculations are also a contributing factor.
