This is strange and even scientists don't fully understand exactly how it happened, but a superbug outbreak from eyedrops available in Illinois has now somehow spread to dogs.
Hard to believe that it's now been almost 4 years since the start of the pandemic. While you don't see much in the headlines lately about COVID, there has been a sudden rise of cases and especially hospitalizations in Illinois with some saying they're experiencing odd symptoms that have not been seen before.
I have a lot of friends in Missouri and I have a lot of friends in Missouri that are sick right now. That anecdotal observation agrees with a report from federal health agencies which show Missouri is getting hammered by 3 different flu variants right now.
Maybe the best gift to give this holiday season isn't a physical present, but the gift of wellness. Illinoisans are getting hit hard with all sorts of respiratory viruses.
