Hard to say: In this country day care facilities are licensed & inspected to assure hygienic practices & vaccination status of attendees. Beyond that it is often a hit or miss process. Kids that age are expected to get 5-7 URI's/yr and 1-2 diarrhea illnesses/yr. Since the first months they have moms immunity these start after 4 mo. Some infants just do better away from other kids their 1st 3-4 yrs.
