This isn't a political discussion. Keep the buzzwords out of it.
Not referencing politics. I'm saying your physiology isn't as unique as you think it is and your understanding of health and disease is very elementary.
I'm glad you've been relatively lucky with regards to infectious disease--such is often the case living in the developed world. Doesn't mean you aren't susceptible to things though.
At what point do you stop and think "maybe this isn't just luck?" Swine flu was a fairly serious thing. People with weak or compromised immune systems in less developed areas died from it. I missed 1 day of work. Yes, developed country, but that would only be a factor if I required medical treatment for it. People around me get sick. I get sinus congestion or nothing. Not once. Every time. I guess if you haven't lived it, it seems like luck and/or constant coincidence.
I have two questions
We're you sick a lot as a kid? And what will you do if you ever get a serious flu? ---
