about severe, acquired chronic illnesses. Can they get them, or are their immune systems too effective? What about something ultimately lethal like AIDS - would that just be 'neutralised' by an immortal immune system, or could it turn into, say, a chronic-but-not-lethal (perhaps not even particularly serious in terms of symptoms) thing? Could a mortal catch it off an immortal even though the immortal doesn't have symptoms? Etc.
This makes me wonder...
