Yes fair enough, just a thought.
If you're likely to be exposed to more germs, perhaps less other stress will help keep you're immune system strong and thus fight off more and less interruptions from training. Consistency is the king for training.

I am exploring ways of improving my immune system against the viral onslaught.
Interestingly, my immune system seems strong against a lot of other bugs, just maybe exposed to colds/flu bugs more than most. (Teaching martial arts at uni, young kids, playgrounds, soft play etc)
I know the pros avoid shaking hands etc even before covid to avoid picking up colds.

Maybe, though I was completely virus and bug free between March and September, and then from September onwards, my daughter started reception year, and my son started nursery.
I had the same thing when my daughter started nursery, every other week she would be snotty and sneezing. Can't avoid wiping your kids noses, or them sneezing right in your face.
In terms of eating/volume, I was doing about 6-7h of structured training, about 1.5h of strength training, and running on roughly 600-700kcal deficit, so not crash dieting, or over training.
