I wonder if there's been any research done into folk epidemiology, i.e. how people believe a given illness has been transmitted.
I wonder how accurate "oh yeah I got that cold from alice" etc actually is.
@mcmoots yeah I think I read somewhere that a couple of days is actually pretty common?
@starkatt IIRC lots of people underestimate the incubation period for food poisoning - so they blame the restaurant they at at for dinner when really it was their own lunch what done it.
