    It's a theory but CDC and other authorities, even the conflicted ones, seem to agree that increased awareness doesn't account for the increase; it's an epidemic.https://twitter.com/Vermouth1991/status/943675693463830528 …

    How about better awareness in childhood mental problems? In the old days having smallpox isn't a virus problem it was "wrath of God"; in the old days when kids acted funny they were "slow" or all lumped into "rëtârd" camp instead of finding out what really happened. @zhengyingli

        Next year is the 100yr anniversary of the 1918 flu pandemic. Wikipedia says it killed est. 50-100 million lasted about a yr and infected 500 million about 1/3 of the planets population at time.

        It’s a good thing we now (in 2017) regularly wash our hands, refrigerate our food, don’t allow horses to fill the streets with manure, have indoor plumbing then and drink clean water. Not much of these things were commonplace in 1918.

        none of those things except hand washing would have helped and with 5000 ppl working in 1 building ppl living in clusters when back then everyone was living further apart in rural farm settings likely it would be worse. the 1918 flu reached deep in jungles and the arctics.

        Hand washing is a pretty big thing. People today are better nourished which gives us stronger immune systems as well.

        citing the CDC now as an authority?, A few days ago you saw fit to change there language from "very rarely" to "occasionally"....keep pushing the narrative Sharyl

        What about the tidal upsurge in food allergies which are definitely related to immune systems?
