avoiding infection after a organ transplant? - (Sep/10/2008 )
didnt know where abouts to post this sorry.
if a person has a organ transplant they have to take drugs to supress their immune system and stop the organ being rejected. why is it important that they avoid infection?

think about it. What do you need to fight off an infection? And what does an immune system do when combating an infection.

Even those who hadn't had organ transplant need to avoid infection. 
It is important for everyone to avoid infection, isn't it?-Bungalow Boy-
