    We all know that there is no cure for the common cold (or, at least, I haven't found one yet). But is it true that once you've been knocked flat by one rhino or other cold-causing virus, you become immune to it?

    Question #63034. Asked by lanfranco.

    minuscule_

    Yes, humoral immune response antibodies clear the rivers and hoarse throat but mutant viruses return.

    Well, gmack, you and I are obviously in the same condition. Both your and miniscule's sites seem to be informative, but I'm too lightheaded at the moment to make a serious evaluation.

    Oh, you're right. Blame it on Contac. (Or is that Contact?)

    Now, where was that momento/memento thing?
