So doctors are around sick people like all day long, and they never seem to get sick. Why is this? And if they do something to prevent getting sick could you tell me what because I wanna know. Thanks! :D
My wife and son both work in the medical field. My don is a paramedic/firefighter who answers 911 calls. He rarely knows what he is walking in on until he gets there. He and others paramedics take proper precautions such as cloves, masks and gowns when required. The use hand sanitizers. They try to eat well, rest well, and they get the proper immunizations to protect themselves.
My wife works in the clerical are of medicine. She works with the doctors and nurse who carry the different germs to her office when they visit. She and her office personnel also try to eat right, get proper immunizations and plenty of rest. The doctors and nurse follow the same way.
Taking proper precautions can limit your chances of getting sick. Proper immunizations. Washing your hands often, use of hand sanitizers and getting proper rest and exercise will help you stay healthy. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]

They wear disposable gloves, face masks, use anti-bacterial gel, and of course wash their hands thoroughly.
Doctors are also health personified, and so they eat healthily, and exercise. All this prevents you from becoming ill. And of course, doctors are human, so they get ill. I assume they can stop it quicker, because they tend to know the symptoms, and so when they spot the first signs, they can go to a doctor to help them or take precautions.
You then have the social aspect i.e. doctors get paid large amounts. This may mean they can afford to heat their house thoroughly, eat well, afford gym memberships which in turn improve their health etc etc.
