Inconceivable!
…so getting bitten can actually lead to super powers… hmm.
So what do we do if we get bitten by something deadly, then?” I asked.
He blinked at me as if I were stupid.
“Well, what do you think you do?” he said. “You die of course. That’s what deadly means.”

i wonder if hes going to get sensitized and become allergic to it, i remember there was another guy that tried this and he became allergic overtime just from dried venom.
Its an interesting area of biology. For example bee stings are like this, where you get more and more allergic with every sting. Mosquitos are the opposite tho, where at some point it will just stop having any effect.

I’m not sure my histamines got the memo. 😒
some people are sensitive they can get a really bad rash from it.
It’s nuts how different people are. I don’t react to mosquito bites, but my friend gets really itchy red welts from them that linger.
you can get sensitized to allergens and bug bites. im guessing its different if its purified and then injected than maybe. funny thing mosquitoes have complex salival compounds that initially suppresses the immune system, once it wears off the body reacts to the proteins.
