@knowledgefight.bsky.social I am listening to your most recent episode and I wanted to share that some recent research has revealed that one potential major cause of allergies involves how the substance gets into your body. If it gets in through your skin (cuts or lesions) it can cause a reaction.

This adaptation is crucial for the virus's potential to spread between humans.
