A child goes through up to 12 infections per year
The cold season is particularly challenging for parents. Because when a child is ill, mothers and fathers have to organize, care for and cheer them up. And it can also cause worry: Why does my child have a cold again?

The good news is that the number of infections decreases steadily from school entry.
