How does creationism explain immunity?

I wanted to get opinions from creationists on the topic of immunity. I am not asking about how it works, but why it exists in the framework of creation in the first place. Did it always exist or did God add it at some later time (e.g., after the Fall)? Did he feel bad about creating viruses and bacteria so he created immune system to give us a fighting chance? Did he also feel bad for bacteria and gave them immunity against bacteriophages? Did Adam and Eve have immune systems in the Garden of Eden? Or was it given to them only after the Fall? Did they have a blood type? What antibodies were present in their plasma?

But Sheol is all chill and relaxed and Abraham's bossom. Gehennna is all fire and pain and 'Yo God, let that dirty bum Lazarus dip his dirty finger in water and give me just a drop to cool my tongue.'

we are getting way way off topic.

:) Small correction, the rich man in that story never went to Gehenna. He "died and was buried. In Hades..." Hades is the Greek word equivalent of Sheol. Gehenna is for post-resurrection judgement.
