You write well and seem very well informed/educated, particularly with respect to biology and disease. You are also Jessica Wildfire right? But who are you? You are very elusive and, from having done some casual searching, I think I’m not the only curious reader.

This was a helpful article. Can I make one small suggested edit to the last two sentences of the paragraph that begins "No credible doctor or immunologist recommends building your immune system by welcoming viral and bacterial infections into your life"? (Thirteenth to last paragraph, if I counted properly on my phone.)

My editing suggestion is: "Vaccines don't give your immune system practice. Rather, they allow your body to develop a memory of a pathogen without all the risk." The wording of the current version made me do a doubletake and I don't even want to quote it. I had to reread the two sentences a couple of times to make sure I understood.
