It sounds like a bunch of people at work are coughing up a lung. It all started when school started.

They all do, it's a normal part of putting large groups of people together.

My DS was sick every year within 2 weeks of school starting. Happened every year from K-12. Don't miss that at all.

Kids here went back to school this week. I'm anticipating the germ-sharing fest any day now.
ETA: I don't have kids. But I work in a supermarket and first the kids will come in for their after-school cookies with snotty noses and germ-covered pennies. Next the parents will do their big weekly shop, sniffling and suffering all over me, having caught the bug from their kids. Finally my colleagues will go down with it and I'll be called in to cover sickness or have to become 2 people because we're a man down.
I'm not sure which is worse, the noise and mess of the kids over summer, or the germs when they go back to school. {sigh}

My daughter takes immune suppressant drugs. She missed 23 days last year due to a virus she couldn't shake. So far, so good this year.

Yep! I'm expecting my preschooler to get sick sometime after next week. He's only been in school 2 days so far, so hasn't had a chance to get really germy yet.  |

As a grade schooler my son was sick all the time. He missed a month of school in kindergarten and grade 1 due to hospitalizations. After that he didn't get sick of if he did he wouldn't miss school no matter how sick he got. He hates to miss school so he didn't catch anything too serious in the upper grades and didn't miss a day of school after grade 3. As an adult he is extremely healthy. He eats well, he goes to bed very early, when he goes out he doesn't stay out late, and he takes very good care of himself.
The two big hospitalizations were a nightmare, though!

Nope we typically stay pretty healthy around here. Same. My kid must have a super immune system or something. I hear people around here comment about back to school and getting sick, but we don't have that issue. I work for the school district and I don't seem to get sick either. |

Nope - my kids seldom get anything. They are 13 and 17.
