Why is the immune system so fast to respond to allergens, but take days to fight off a legitimate infection?
In: 5304
An allergen is a simple particle. It will sit there and be easily attacked until neutralized. If your immune system never responded you’d be fine.
An infection is living bacteria or virus. It will reproduce as long and attack body functions as long as it can. If your immune system never responded you’d die quickly.
