My hope

I went to Nagoya city on a business trip yesterday. Nagoy is in Aichi prefecture that is the second largest number of infected people with the new coronavirus in Japan. My wife gave me a pack of vitamin supplements before I left home so that I could build up my resistance for the virus by getting them constatnly. What a kind wife in the world she is, I thought.
When I left home, she said, "If you give me the virus, I will kill you!"

I would be the first person in the world who is killed by a family member ahead of the coronavirus if I got infected. I hope not I have the virus.


昨日、出張で名古屋市に行って来ました。名古屋は愛知県にあり、日本で二番目に新型コロナウィルスの感染者が多い所です。出かける前に妻がビタミン剤を1袋くれました。しきりにビタミン剤を摂って抵抗力をつけるようにとのことでした。なんて優しい妻なんだろうと思いました。
出かけるときに妻は言いました。「コロナを私に移したら殺すからね!」

私がコロナに感染したら、コロナよりも先に家族に殺される世界で最初の人間になるかもしれません。
コロナにかかってないことを祈ります。

My wife gave me a pack of vitamin supplements before I left home so that I could build up my resistance foragainst the virus by getting them constatnly.

The word resistance implies there is something being opposed; using the word 'against' will make it clear what is opposing your resistance - the virus. You can also use the word 'to': "... I could build up my resistance [to] the virus...." The word 'to' will refer to the purpose of building your resistance. 'For' also refers to purpose, but it is used when there is some goal or someone is receiving/benefiting from your action(s).

Here are some examples:
-I bought a gift [for] my mother.
-I am getting stronger [for] boot camp.
-I completed the homework [for] my class.

I also recommend erasing the last part of the sentence. In this sentence, you use the word 'by' to explain how you are fighting the virus, but we already know how you are fighting the virus because it is the reasoning to why your wife gave you vitamins. If you did not mention the vitamins, you could say: "I am building up my resistance against the virus [by] taking vitamins."
