@ i'm glad no one else has gotten that sick.We live in a valley that's bad for allergies,SMOG and everything that collects in valleys.--(The Indians called it The Valley of Sickness.)
@clarachan1355 I think that people are getting sick, maybe they just aren't online to chat about it.
Smog sucks big time. It does wear the immune system down.
Take care and stay well! :)

If it is the season i am missing something, not had a cold myself for many a year now, i was only getting sick a few times (most recently last Christmas)if i don't read the ingredients on food properly, the odd headaches from msg food and certain nuts.... cashhh......yuk cannot finish that one.
If the air does look a bit too smogged and such, perhaps some face masks would come in handy on those days when it becomes way too much, i get some looks when out on the times i have to use them, but health is wealth, and at most for the past years if i catch something, its a 24 hour ordeal and then i am in the clear, i take many organic foods no meat, but that works for me as i was not meant for meat eating.
I hope you are much better now in this seasonal time and keeping warm, it is getting mighty cold at certain times now and many people around who perhaps handle door handles and such things when ill... and then that is also a risk of infections to keep ever a watchout for.

I also picked up a strange dainty from the 99 cent store'"circus peanuts",which are large soft peanut shaped candy,made of sugar,flavoring,and egg albumin.--yes,that's the ingredients,If they are fresh,they are soft,fluffy,pumped up,and super sweet--drug addicts also like them.--but I also love them,they melt in your mouth,putting sugar directly into the blood stream like a drug.Do you Europeans or Aussies have any junk food like this?Licorice?I love licorice!!--this feels nothing like food, more like spun sugar,--the junkiest of junk food!!
