Brought to you by OBS reviewer AngieIn this short story we meet a 17 year old whose life has been turned upside down in a modern world that has been brought to it's knees by resistant bacteria and viruses. This seemed to be a cautionary tale of what happens when people take for granted their health and safety. For years researchers have been telling us that the over use of antibacterial soaps and hand sanitizers leads to strains of viruses that are resistant "super-bugs."  So this story brings all those warnings to light and shows what *could* happen.For me, there was no character development, no connection to the family. I didn't have a moment where I felt like I was invested in the story.This review and more at openbooksociety dot com
