This happens because our immunity is affected and weakened during the change of seasons. This increases the risk of viruses. During this time, some people experience headaches, fatigue, body aches, fever, and throat problems. Children and the elderly are most affected. The risk of bacteria is also higher during this season, which leads to an increase in cases of various infections."
