Those Buggy Viruses
that have no name
There is a reason that we speak of content “going viral.” It spreads like a virus… like the one I have/had/am dealing with.
This isn’t about how to make your content go viral — it’s about those “other viral” entities — the ones that make you ill.
I’m healthy, I rarely get sick, and if I get “something” it goes away quickly.
I wrote about aging and how everything takes longer including getting over stuff. But I was talking mostly about physical issues….
I never thought of illnesses such as viruses…. because this has never happened — even as I aged. If I felt “sick” it was a short — maybe 2-days of feeling crappy.
But this year it did happen!!! I even went to see my primary care person to make sure it wasn’t something worse.
It made me stop and think not just about my own health, but what is happening with viral diseases since Covid-19.
