I taught in elementary schools students for over 15 years and schools are germ factories. Even with flu shots I was constantly sick but I never built up immunities for some reason and had to stop teaching due to it (mono, pneumonia, severe respiratory damage from mold, etc.).

I never had a lot of students out sick at one time like I see happening now though. The question I have is why so many at two specific high schools in San Diego? That doesn't make sense. A teacher friend also believes something else is missing from the equation, so to speak.
