This is interesting, thank you for sharing. On a similar note now that school has started for kids, has anyone noticed an increase in RSV or other respiratory illness compared to pre-covid? I have 5 kids, three went through toddler years before covid and the other two were born after. The younger two have struggled with respiratory issues each fall for the past three years in ways we never saw in the older kids (including two ER visits for respiratory distress). Thankfully we're better equipped to handle it now: learning that opening the window to get cold air helps along with having an Albuterol nebulizer, though I can't help but wonder if other parents are seeing similar things. It all could just be totally random I suppose.
