You're right, of course.

I know what you were getting at,
I just like calling people silly,

No YOU'RE silly!
Anyway, my area of speciality is parasitic disease, rather than this.

My academic area of expertise
if you can call it that is Neurochemistry,

I'd hardly clam to be an expert, ha!
But I studied a lot about it.
Although my research project was on the female reproductive systems of a certain kind of water beetle.

you like parasites, I like bacteria and viruses.
You can say I don't know what's going on - Okay - maybe I don't have as an "informed" opinion as Kaol, but I do have quite a good idea of how viruses and bacteria transmit and live. I'm entitled to my opinions just as much as you.

yes I do -
the Flu is a disease. MS is a disease. A disease is where your body is not able to stay healthy and fight off whatever is going wrong. Infection is from pathogens. Disease can be autoimmune or otherwise.
