Understanding the Brain on Omegas 3 and 6

The Discovery of Germs
What makes you sick? Filth and decay, obviously. The stagnant muck of sewers and swamps, or even a bad basement, endangers your breathing and maybe even your life. Living in cleanliness, sunshine, and fresh air is the way to avoid damaging your health. This much has been apparent to most observers since the most primitive times.

The thing about this pandemic is that doctors could never truly get their hands on a regular vaccine.
