- Oh, you swine.

Correcting Misconceptions
- A fever does not mean your illness is bacterial. It just means your body is fighting the illness.
- The color of your snot is not an indicator of bacterial or viral illness.
- Coughing up mucus does not necessarily mean your cold is “in your chest.” It may still be coming from your throat or sinuses.
- Antibiotic and steroid shots are rarely better than their oral counterparts. The fact that you think they work faster is placebo effect.
- You do not get the flu from your flu shot any more than you can start laying eggs after eating chicken nuggets.
- A temperature of 99.9 is not a fever. And furthermore, when did the back of mom’s hand start reading exact temperature values?How can you know the temp was 102.5 if you don’t have a thermometer?
- Toddlers are sick almost as often as they are well. They catch almost every new virus they encounter. Your kid’s one ear infection and constant runny nose does not mean they have a terrible immune deficiency. It more likely means they’re just new and haven’t met all the viruses around them yet.
