Permies tend to be younger than us contractors and thus have less immunity.

I permie in the office yesterday sneezed a total of 7 times in 10 minutes on arriving in the office yesterday. He got told to go home by a manger sitting in an office near him, he was told to go home (informing HR on the way out) and read up on the symptoms of swine flu and not travel to Paris as planned that afternoon.

Cautious or plain paranoia?
