What I Can Do

1. Inflammation is an important part of the immune system's response to damage and infection. It is the body's way of
telling the immune system to mend and restore damaged tissue while also defending itself against outside invaders
like viruses and bacteria.
2. Inflammation can either be helpful or harmful when it comes to our health. When inflammation is good, it repels
foreign invaders, heals injuries, and sweeps up debris. However, when it is bad, inflammation causes a slew of
problems, including arthritis, asthma, atherosclerosis, blindness, cancer, diabetes, and, possibly, autism and mental
illness.
3. The vaccine works by preparing the immune system to identify and attack infections such as viruses or bacteria after
a person has been vaccinated. To provoke an immune response, certain pathogen molecules must be delivered into
the body. Antigens are molecules that can be present in all viruses and bacteria. The immune system may learn to
detect these antigens as hostile intruders, generate antibodies, and memorize them for future use by injecting them
into the body. If the bacteria or virus resurfaces, the immune system recognizes the antigens instantly and attacks
forcefully, long before the disease can spread and cause sickness.
4. Our immune system is our body's defense against infections and other harmful invaders. Hence, if a person cannot
produce enough antibodies, he or she would constantly get sick from bacteria or viruses, and he or she will not be
capable of fighting pathogens. Also, if an individual cannot produce antibodies, this person would possibly acquire
immunodeficiency disorders that may affect any part of the immune system. These conditions most commonly
occur when special white blood cells known as T or B lymphocytes (or both) do not function normally or the body
does not produce enough antibodies.
5. Regulatory T cells control the immune response by turning it off. They prevent immune system from harming the
body. These are very important as the loss of function that can lead to autoimmune disease.
