If the Dead Sea Scroll was written hundred of years before the New Testament but survived then why then are there no original manuscripts of the New Testament today?

The Dead Sea Scrolls survived as a result of the fortunes of war and climate. After the end of the Jewish War in 70 CE, the Essenes abandoned the scrolls in remote caves near the Dead Sea. They remained undisturbed for nearly two thousand years in a dry climate favourable for their survival. Even so, many of the scrolls are mere fragments. On the other hand, the earliest New Testament documents would have been working documents - read, preached from, and copied, until they simply disintegrated. We should read nothing from the lack of original New Testament manuscripts.
