I know a LOT of people who around mid Jan to mid Feb had “flu” but with exceptional levels of pneumonia way beyond what flu is “supposed to” bring.

How likely is it that many people have already had this and don’t know it and that there is likely a portion of the population walking around who can’t be reinfected? I feel like if this possibility exists, it needs to be looked at.

Thank you.

Yes I’ve seen that too. And on the other hand seen that they think it could be an early misunderstanding of “exit testing” meaning that people are remaining infectious longer than previously thought, so I wonder where our knowledge on this is now. It’s interesting.

Merry Christmas! Will you have family nearby to keep you company? If you’re allowed to eat normally at that point, I hope they bring you som Christmas treats.

If you like jigsaw puzzles, have someone bring you a couple to help pass the time.

My spouse’s family lost everyone except his direct grandparents in Auschwitz - more than 40 people.

I plan to read your book. I read all the first hand memoirs of the Holocaust and WW2 that I can get my hands on.

If you had one sentence of advice/warning/wisdom to offer the world right now, what would it be?

Also, I plan to visit one of the camp memorial museums this summer - Mauthausen in our case because we will be closer to that area. I will be with my teenage daughter. I have been thinking of ways to help her (and me, not gonna lie) process the experience. I’d welcome any suggestions you have have.

Thank you
