Can you tell me how i can prevent myself getting sick?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Healthy lifestyle: May keep you healthy i.e. Reducing stress, eating healthy, exercise, avoiding drugs, smoking or excessive alcohol and following your doctors recommendation for preventive medical care. Even after all this one can still get sick. Good luck
