There is a difference between babies and children - I'm discussing babies in here.
It's a miracle he didn't die or at least become brain-damaged. This disease moves through the body so fast no one can believe he made it through with a clean-bill. |
He didn't mean that the infants were immune from disease but rather they can be more resistant. Although I think that's wrong in itself not nvm.
But I think we shouldn't be too afraid to expose our new born to microbes, too much hygiene has lead to increased development of allergies because the immune system literally has nothing to do...
