A new study published online Sunday in the journal Nature, indicates that our immune system is much stronger than we thought. Researchers manipulated the antibodies from blood samples collected from people aged 92 to 102 who were exposed to the 1918 pandemic flu into a vaccine and found that it kept alive all the mice they had injected with the killer flu. The 1918 pandemic flu killed about 50 million people worldwide and roughly everybody else was exposed to the virus.
