Anything you can do: to boost immunity is helpful for prevention in general so your exercise is good. As your doc to check your vitamin D level, which is also an immune booster and may people have low D. A new study suggests that statin medication for high cholesterol is associated w/breast cancer. As your doc about that. Manage stress because stress depresses immunity. Peace and good health.
