there is evidence that people who eat plant-based have better outcomes from getting sick

Sounds like a steak side salad would be beneficial.

No, no it would not be beneficial. That would be the opposite of beneficial (unless it's plant-based steak).

Eating the flesh of an animal is not good for anyone. It's not good for the animal who was abused their whole life and murdered. It's not good for the environment. It's not good for all the beings who get sick from pathogens because of it. And it's not even good for the human animal who consumes the other animal's flesh.

Eating the flesh of an animal is not good for anyone.

It tastes nice and is a source of protein, iron and other minerals.

It's not good for the animal who was abused their whole life and murdered.

True in some cases.

It's not good for the environment.

True in most cases.

It's not good for all the beings who get sick from pathogens because of it.

True. But pathogens also exist on plants. Which is why food standards exist that cover both.
