I'll believe it when I see it. I was laid up for a week and my girlfriend was down and out for a couple weeks.

I think the article is about what happens to your body after the flu. Not that the existence of the flu makes people have a super immunity. So, you being sick is cool and all, but wait for the results after.

No it was definitely 2 weeks...
I had it too, I meant I'll believe in the super immunity when I go without getting the flu for a while.

It sure doesn't affect colds. I had H1N1 and now I've had a cold since boxing day.

What does it offer if you got it, but didn't even feel that you had it (the only reason I know I contracted it was because I felt nothing came from the injection)?

Colds are caused by rhinovirus. Infection from influenza wouldn't lead to any kind of immunological resistance against a cold.

So you know you had H1N1 despite not having any symptoms, and you know this because you felt nothing come from the injection.
Maybe a lot of us had it and just didn't know it

It is because H1N1 doesn't drive a purple mustang. Ipso facto it is dumb.

It's actually quite possible. Quite a few times you will contract the flu, but it goes unnoticed because of the limited symptoms (as you know, H1N1 is basically just another flu strain, but did not have a treatment at the time of the "pandemic").
(If you're wonding why I'm thinking this, it was a discussion I had with a couple doctors while waiting for the injection)

I don't really believe in influenza shots.
I haven't had one in like 10 years... haven't had the flu since.
I laughed at all the sheeple who waited in line to get their H1N1 shots, waiting in the cold, surrounded by sick people.
You know how i stay healthy? Eat good, exercise, and avoid sick people like the plague.

It's like I can't figure out if you you're dense or trolling. In homage to your Mustang, I will name you DensoTroll.
