But surely this is still going to provoke a response from our immune system? even though it overcomes it easily, it makes us feel like we're coming down with flu? |

As you all know my husband got very ill and eventually ended up with pneumonia. He started off complaining that he felt like he was coming down with the flu, which got progressively worse! He wasn't the only one affected adversely either.
