“Few die of an overactive immune system. This one is a medical mystery.”

Not sure what you mean.

It’s a well known phenomenon which is associated with people dying of viral infections.

You might want to check that statement. An overactive immune system causes things like inflammation which many people die from.

Chronic inflammatory diseases are the most significant cause of death in the world. ... Worldwide, 3 of 5 people die due to chronic inflammatory diseases like stroke, chronic respiratory diseases, heart disorders, cancer, obesity, and diabetes. (Source: nih.gov)
