Immune Dynamics

Immune dynamics refer to how the immune system responds to threats like germs, infections, or injuries over time. It involves the activation of immune cells that identify and attack harmful agents, then gradually quiet down once the threat is eliminated. This process also includes memory formation, so the body can respond faster to future encounters with the same pathogen. Immune dynamics are affected by factors like age, health, and vaccines, and they help maintain a balance—protecting the body while avoiding unnecessary immune reactions that could cause harm.
