The problem is when you are constantly sick because of the school, its a real problem my family in Florida faces every school year. I visited them this last year during the spring and they were sick for the entire visit and apparently it happens every year now. Plus, after covid everything seems like it got much worse on the preventing infection side of things, so this tech would most likely be a net positive, even if it does affect the immune system and its natural defenses.
