Jesus, that's not how immunity works. Your blood is not full of antibodies for every bug you encountered in your lifetime. Mechanisms like memory cells retain knowledge of how to quickly ramp up production if the pathogen is encountered again. They even pre-mutate to anticipate future variants so immunity can get better over time.
