An immune system in overdrive is not always a good thing. See, PANDAS and Guillan Barre for a good idea of how the immune system can go overboard.
I have a tendency to look up strange and scary diseases in order to scare the hell out of myself at night.

Not sure why the downvotes. There are two reasons Germany got so many refugees. With their past, Germany has a commitment to being an asylum. So Merkel lead by example for the EU and took in a bunch. The labor shortage you speak of is maybe more aptly described as a demographics issue. The infusion of a couple hundred thousand young workers will go a long way to prop up their benefits system for the elderly.
