This really catch my eye today..... 
We all know that there is clear seasonal time frame with influenza and other flu like symptoms, common cold etc..
Another known thing is lack of Sun / vitamin D.
But what about the effect of dry air to our lung mucosal barriers ? It think is it probably far more important than many us have been thinking, at least i did not think it so important before reading about it now.
It`s explained in this twitter below with details . To me it makes sense . And now , as many RN members are feeling the winter weather , it`s good to remind about indoor humidity , to not let it go down too much as the heating of house start go more up. Too dry indoor air can lead to flu like illness , body dont just work at best level when it`s dehydrated .
