In the heat of the pandemic, Purell poured some $400 million into expanding its production. As anyone who resorted to bootleg hand sanitizer knows, the company came nowhere close to meeting demand. Distilleries and state governments also got in on the action; New York State’s version was, as best as I could discern, a mixture of urinal cakes and bottom-shelf vodka. (I was grateful for it.)

Many of these pandemic habits will be hard to break, but we might have to do that because some germs are good. Certain microbes and bacteria protect our bodies and keep us healthy. ....

Asthma is the most common chronic condition in children and affects nearly one in ten children in developed countries. A respiratory virus is one of the most common causes of asthma symptoms in children five years old and younger. However, the cause of asthma is still unknown. If a child has a family history of asthma or allergies, they have a higher chance of getting asthma early in life.
