Illustration: In a Japanese bedroom, an adult lies propped up in a futon, visibly feverish and exhausted, with damp hair at the temples. They cough into a tissue while a partner gently checks their forehead and offers water. Used tissues collect in a small wastebasket, and an untouched light meal sits nearby.
