+++Hi Roy,

I read that article on Dr. Mercola's site. Interesting, since that's what I've

been saying all along. Build up your immune system and you won't get sick.

Cheers, Bee

article is:

I'm currently taking an intro microbiology course, and the materials for the

class naturally hew very closely to the " party " line i.e. Germ Theory, at least

overtly. However, if you pay attention to descriptions in the text, the immune

system is clearly the key factor, even there.

We had a class discussion about the transmission of AIDS/HIV the other day.

With what I have lately been learning, I had to bite my tongue...
