Well it works differently. Caitlin has her powers given to her by science and therefore has to have rules that are established by the creators of the fictional science. Elsa has classic Disney magic where they don't have to explain anything. Who's Elisa? :P

But in all seriousness, catching a cold has no relation to cryokinesis. A cold is when a pathogenic microorganism infects a person's body. Having cold powers won't automatically prevent infection. I guess it could slow the infection down, but it wouldn't make them fully immune to all diseases. It says that Caitlin has Cold immunity how could she get sick from getting a cold if she is unable to get cold.
