History
When a person is sick or has a certain disease the general immunity of the body to fight against the pathogens becomes really low. Our body has an excellent defense mechanism against any foreign particle that enters a body. In a healthy person the rate of immunity is pretty high and the defense mechanism works well against pathogens. Most of the time our body is successful in fighting and eliminating pathogens but sometimes the pathogens succeed and then we become sick. By the time we are sick our immunity system becomes very weak after putting up a fight with the pathogen hence our body becomes susceptible to other foreign pathogens and diseases. That’s why people who have one disease can shift quickly to another. Therefore when a person is sick, it becomes very essential for that person to become careful and very good care should be taken of that person. While eating good and doing certain activities can boost our immunity, doing certain unhealthy activities can disturbed the sickness. Needless to say that the former should be adopted and the later should be avoided.
