I've had my fair share of colds, which last longer than they should and can cause wheezing, so I avoid people who are sneezing like the plague and am scrupulous about hygiene and hand-washing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It used to be said that when the U.S. sneezed, the world caught a cold. The opposite is equally true today.
Be able to sneeze without sounding ridiculous. That means neither stifling yourself or spraying your immediate vicinity.
I don't like cold people at all. It makes me feel really insecure.
I live in a Swiss village so small, if you sneeze everyone knows.
I have allergies, and I've had my share of nosebleeds, but that's usually related to pollen.
The best thing about getting a flu shot is that you never again need to wash your hands. That's how I see it.

I live in a fantasy world where I think I'm immune to all disease. I don't get sick and haven't had anything major go wrong.
Once, when a British Prime Minister sneezed, men half a world away would blow their noses. Now when a British Prime Minister sneezes nobody else will even say 'Bless You'.
If you take a reasonable amount of vitamin C regularly, the incidence of the common cold goes down. If you get a cold and start immediately, as soon as you start sneezing and sniffling, the cold just doesn't get going.
