Sheffield residents crowned the hardiest in the UK – when dealing with the common cold

Residents of Sheffield have been crowned the hardiest in the UK – when dealing with the common cold. Research into 2,000 people – 100 from each of the 20 biggest UK cities – found that, as well as being able to go about their daily business with the ailment, those in the steel city also take the fewest sick days because of it, with only half a day off annually.
