Solution

Strong immune system our body is normally fighting off microbes. We have cells which are specialised to kill the pathogenic microbes. These cells are active when infecting microbes enter the body and if they are successful in removing the pathogen, we remain disease– free. So even if we are exposed to infectious microbes, it is not necessary that we suffer from diseases.
