  I 100% agree with your point of view then, it seems very logical.

  Let’s say I’m immune to mosquito bites. I wouldn’t even notice one or two buzzing about. But I’m very reactive to bites, and get itchiness that lasts for what feels like hours, so as soon as something buzzes nearby, I’m panicking.

    You only get hours of itchiness?! I get welts that last for weeks and cause discoloration even once the swelling is gone
