Adam and Eva unpack his concept of "health negging (™)" as they discuss awkward behavior that arises in people close to those with health conditions, including coronavirus / covid-19. Other topics: feeling bad about asking for help (sometimes so bad you can't stop apologizing), feeling like you deserve to be "sick," multicultural health beliefs and behaviors, and inherited trauma you might just be walking around with because you're you.
