As I have remarked in previous comments, this very thing has happened to me twice recently.

After a 5 hr flight to Perth, Western Australia, I got scorched on a 38 C (100 F) day while wandering around Rottnest Island with no sunscreen. By that afternoon I had a sniffly nose which progressed into a sore throat and plenty of mucus to expel. Virus? Sudden Vitamin D overdose? Cosmic ray irradiation from my 20,000 ft flight across the Nullabor? Cabin pressure?

Only two weeks ago my wife and I went on a road trip, a mere 5 hr drive from home to central-northern NSW (near Kempsey). As an avid bush food forager, I gorged myself on wild warrigal, sea rocket and sarsaparilla shoots. On the Wednesday, my lower lip erupted into the hugest cold sore I can ever remember having (and I rarely get cold sores, this is the second this year I've had, the last would have been well before I was married in 2010). Was it overexposure to smilagenin? A sudden rush of nutrients from wild warrigal greens? Overexposure to solar irradiation (again, I refuse to wear sunscreen nowadays)? Bitten by ants during the night?

Who knows. Who cares. I survived and I didn't need no stinking herpes, flu or COVID vaccination to save my sorry hiney.

As always a brilliant article.

Invariably their cockamamie theories are amplified to the point where a worldwide crisis is declared. The very nature of their dark theory of contagion can only lead to a world ruled by totalitarians.

New release. THE EMERGENCY. Unending fake public health “emergencies” enable global elites to maintain an iron grip on a worldwide population living in fear. Listen to Turfseer’s new song. https://turfseer.substack.com/p/the-emergency
