Now we know this year, I have not a conspiracy theory, but there's direct data linked to why does everybody get sick this time of year? You ever think of like, why does everybody get sick September, October, November? Is it because, well, they just start seeing each other again and everybody gets sick right around now? Well, no, because I'm sitting on a beach all summer surrounded by thousands of strangers from all around the world and nobody gets sick.
The weather's not that much different in New Jersey right now than it was in August.
Why does everybody get sick around this time of year? Well, here's a dirty little secret, and this is an aside to my point.
So now you have all of these carriers walking around coughing and sneezing and not feeling great and getting everybody else sick.
You ever notice that? All the propaganda, you walk into the grocery store and they're like free flu shots starting today.
Oddly enough, the majority of the population gets the flu during this exact same time of year.
And Shame on the parents that bring their coughing, sneezing kids to school, to karate, to gymnastics, to afterschool sports.
I'm just saying, you have a coughing and sneezing kid, please don't blow up everyone else's lives.
And also the people who you're going to work How many of you have that disgusting coworker that shows up coughing and sneezing like they're some sort of hero because they showed up sick? Great.
