Author Illness now GOOD for you
George Conklin

Well, now the establishment has spoken again. Now illness is good for you,
as in it builds character. Worried about the flu? Losing 1 week of work?
Nah, it is now a good idea. Maybe they think it will help build money for
providers.

The quote:


"Right now the entire country runs on fear, and we don't need to live like
that," said Catharine A. Kopac, a Georgetown university gerontology
researcher. "We somehow think we should be disease-free all the time. If
you're leading a healthy life and you get sick with the flu, you're probably
going to get through it."

So now we need to think about getting sick and maybe it is good for you. It
shows howt he medical establishment works.
