    Because in manga there's always hospitals, medicine, terrible fever and bed rest involved? Also having to be looked after by someone etc. I've never had a cold that involved any of that stuff just a sore throat and runny nose and nobody I know who didn't already have a pre-existing health issue has needed a doctor for a cold so I was just wondering if it was different for Asians. It's not a crazy question a lot of Asians lack an enzyme to process alcohol so it effects them differently so I was just wondering if the cold virus is different or effects them differently.

    Im European by blood and also get bedridden for a day or two practically every time I get sick. I think my body condition is fairly normal too, you sound like you just have an abnormally good immune system, and I don’t think it has anything to do with race

    I'm Brazilian and I don't know anyone who got THAT sick just because of a cold, me included. Usually if it's to the point that you get bedridden, it's another illness.

    calling it a cold is just purfonctory. it's probably more accurate to say it is a flu or fever. it is normal to happen to overworked/tired workers and students during certain season or weather. maybe blame the working/studying hours and high humidity of many asian regions which help bacteria

    if you're talking about "getting sick" in mangas/manhwas, they're mostly just for the mcs to make progress since this is romance.
