A member asked:
Is it possible to have a natural immunity to chickenpox ? being exposed many times never catching it ...bloods also came back negative
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anything possible: Becoming infected with any agent depends upon the susceptibility of the host, the inoculum size and route of entry of the organism, and a wide variety of other factors. Yes it is possible that your general immune function averted overt infection, but more likely that you never got infected.
