Hello There,

The correct answer is going to be that The Native People lacked natural immunities.


Since they had never been exposed to Europeans before, they did not have any defences developed from the diseases they faced.


It's because of this that diseases such as Smallpox were so devastating to the Native American population.


Have a Nice Wonderful Day Bye!
