If I could live my life over again, I would devote it to proving that germs seek their natural habitat — diseased tissue — rather than being the cause of the diseased tissue; e.g. mosquitoes seek the stagnant water, but don't cause the pool to become stagnant. - Rudolph Virchow, Father of Pathology

Something to note -- an overactive immune system is also a vector of disease.
For instance, allergies are due to an overactive immune system.
Symptoms of a flu (vomiting, fever, fatigue) are also the result of the immune response to the pathogen, not a result OF the pathogen. Viruses can't exist over certain temperatures, so the body ramps up the heat as a defense mechanism.
If an immune system is overactive for too long, it will wear itself out and die. Resulting in NO immune system. No immune system, no problem. That is, until the immune system tries to recover, at which points ADE occurs as it goes scorched earth on every cell in the body which have all been allow to be fully compromised by the pathogen.
Which gets you in the same boat as someone who had theirs killed off gradually from poisons injected by our corrupt Government's handling of toxic and carcinogenic chemicals in our food/surroundings.
It isn't just that the immune system must be strong, but that it is balanced. If it is too polar, both lead to the same result; that being an absence of an immune response to foreign pathogens.
The Government is the immune system of the Nation. Whether it is either too active or too dismissive, both lead to the same result but by different means.
Fascism/Corporatism is the result of an underactive Government.
Communism is the result of a overactive Government.
Both lead to ruin.
We're dealing with both at the same time...
You're correct, though an overactive immune system can only happen due to disease already having taken hold in the first place.
A key takeaway from this Rudolph Virchow quote should be that the immune system is a backup that takes over after the environment has become diseased. It's not the firewall which prevents disease.
The immune system rarely ends up overworked. Sanitation has done wonders to reduce germs and infection. Many allergies and auto-immune disorders arise from an underutilized immune system. That's why it's important to feed babies peanut butter early on.
Constantly barraging them with weekly allergy shots, however, is one way to overwork them.
My bet is "vaccines" do the same. Several doses, just like allergy shots...
Once the immune system recovers, that's when the vaccinated pop the weasel and go into APS (Antiphospholipid Syndrome)

The more logical theory (and the one with more evidence) is that vaccines cause autoimmune diseases via adjuvants and “non-active” ingredients.
For example, most killed virus vaccines contain an adjuvant like aluminum of thimerosal (mercury). Adjuvants irritate the immune system since your body will not react to a dead virus.
However, your body is just as likely to attack other ingredients in the vaccine.
Vaccines grown in eggs lead to egg allergies.
Vaccines with latex contamination lead to latex allergies.
Vaccines using peanut oil or byproducts lead to peanut allergies.
Vaccines containing squalene (found in plants and the human body) caused desert storm syndrome.
Vaccines containing human fetal tissue leads to autoimmune disease.

Except from a review:
Fascism/Corporatism is when the government protects/favors one class/entity over another. So by no means underactive.
Underactive government would be libertarianism which is ideal IMO. No government is anarchy which in theory might work only if the citizenry had shared principles, were moral and good, and were as well armed as any other country's military.
When I say underactive, I mean in a "protect the people's interests" sense.
Corporatism flourishes when there isn't a strong government around to say "you can't build that here" or "you're treating your workers like slaves."
Who owns the board in a Monopoly game? Who owns the rules? Hasbro can be considered the Government in Monopoly, because everyone has to play by their rules. Though, it can be said that Hasbro is an underactive Government, because their rules permit monopolist venture capitalists to take over completely. Hasbro isn't necessarily fascist, but they are corporatist.
If Hasbro was a little more active and fair as a governance, (i.e. the board game rules changed for fairness of play) it would be more like the Game of Life than Monopoly. I'd wager a lot less friendships have ended in real life on account of the Game of Life than Monopoly.
...
If the free market is left entirely free due to an underactive Governance, Corporations turn into governments of their own and usurp authority.
Some restrictions are necessary, otherwise PMCs (Private Military Companies) eventually take over their own patron Corporations after they unsuccessfully challenge one another for monopolistic supremacy and we are left with a Soylent Green / Robocop ecosystem.
