Show Notes
Imagine being stuck at home with a high fever, a sore throat, and a seven-month-old baby who needs constant care—all without any outside help. This is the reality for many parents, and in this episode, Herman and Corn break down the "Viral Protocol" for families in survival mode. From the science of "fomites" and the effectiveness of the "masked hug" to the importance of the "designated baby smock," this episode provides actionable, research-backed strategies to break the chain of transmission. We also discuss how to monitor an infant for signs of illness and why the safest place for a baby might be their crib when a parent is at their breaking point. It’s a must-listen for any parent navigating the flu season or a sudden household illness.
