Well, this is a relief. For me, anyway.
Apparently, the thing that really gets you, with the Swine Flu thing is something called a cytokine storm. It occurs when your body's immune response to a flu keeps on building, until it overreacts, and eventually starts to shut your body down.
Well.
As anecdotal evidence shows us, I apparently have no immune response.
So clearly, I will live, as all you healthy people drop like flies.
Survival of the fittest, indeed.
Srsly, folks, go read this Uncle Mikey Explains post about why we should panic a whole lot less about this whole Swine Flu thing.
