BTW, our family was able to avoid COVID until this past February. It was obviously a different strain, as we are all still here. We also experienced various degrees of illness. However, we have noticed some unusual health and gut problems since COVID. Whatever it's source, various forms of inflammation have to be integral to the COVID experience, regardless of severity. Perhaps we are on the cusp of something spectacular, or we have been fooled once again by the false promise of biotech.
