actually... i think that's still in debate :notsure::

http://www.columbia.edu/itc/biology/pollack/w4065/client_edit/readings/gabriel.pdf -> say yes in 1994

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1287919/ -> summarizes studies and shows that its there isn't a clear relationship, published in 2000.

all in all, don't now if immune but i don't think they'll be devoid ofall symptoms.
