For these people, they’re just 避ing年, so this article isn’t relevant to them. Let’s just let them be sick every Chinese New Year.
But for others, we might really fall sick during Chinese New Year, especially if you’re the type who likes to down ten bak kwas at one go and still shout “pong” loudly during your mahjong sessions.
