What is this mystery respiratory illness we keep hearing about?
We hear it's from China (again).
Since China was in lock down until 2022 they are currently experiencing the same thing the US experienced last year called “Immune Pause”.
Now that China has relieved their lock downs all the upper respiratory illnesses have come back – RSV, Flu, Covid, etc...
Many doctors are giving zpack and when you give zpack to too many people you get resistant mycoplasma which then leads to an up tic in hospitalizations. Hence the up tic in mycoplasma pneumonia.
Here in the US many are experiencing tracheitis which also falls under the category of acute upper respiratory illness. Tracheitis can cause coughing, difficulty breathing, fever, and a hoarse voice.
Since there is a shortage on antibiotics knowing this information and choosing the correct homeopathic remedy at the beginning of an illness can shorten the duration of said illness and many times avoid the need for antibiotics all together.
Speaking of homeopathic remedies, below are a few top homeopathic remedies for some of the most common respiratory illnesses we're experiencing currently.
