Diseases and Infections

The human body is well equipped to defend itself from harmful bacteria and viruses. We filter things out of our body that we dont need or that can cause us harm. Our cells and organs make defenders to destroy invading germs. Our skin and liquids (like tears and saliva) play a huge role in protecting us by keeping germs out. We can help our body. What we do can change how well our body can defend itself. Read tips on how to prevent infectious disease and how to protect others from infection.
