Why do i continue getting pneumonia?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Many causes: You may have a predisposition to infection because of a poor immune system. This can be acquired, inherited or simply due to bad habits....Such as too little sleep, drinking alcohol, too much stress including over exercise. Most physician would test your immune system with blood test and look for medical conditions that may be associated with infection, like COPD or diabetes.
