What is immunology?

Immunology is a study of the human immune system and the area of ​​medicine that treats the immune system diseases. Immunity is the ability of the body to resist the disease and the immune system is the body network of interaction systems: bone marrow, white blood cells, the entire lymphatic system and even the skin. Immunology dates back to ancient civilizations, because it has long been known that some individuals are naturally immune to some diseases and that survivors of certain diseases are immune to the disease. Because the immune system is so wide, it includes everything from blood cells to skin, immunology is a very wide study. Treatment of disorders as simple as common allergies and complex as AIDS that all fall into the category of immunology.

Influenza shots are an example of immunology in action. Every year, the World Health Organization (WHO) will be a highly educated estimate, in which a large number of flu errors will probably be in Cirkulav for the coming year and formulate the "flu shot". EveryoneEspecially to those who have weakened immune systems, it is recommended to shoot the flu, causing the body to create its own antibodies to bounce these specific flus. If WHO guesses badly and we think of a flus for which we have not received artificially induced immunity, many people will descend with the flu.

arthritis and asthma are a disease of the immune system caused by the hypersensitivity of the body against certain substances. Most of the immunology disorders are disorders in which the body's own immune system is not enough to avert the disease and the immune system must be complemented by external assistance. One of the most unsolvable immunological problems is the disease that attacks the immune system itself, helps or syndrome of immunodeficiency caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

AIDS leaves the body sensitive to infections that a healthy patient would easily fight his own antibodies. In view ofThe fact that the immune system protects the entire body, AIDS leaves the entire body vulnerable and opportunistic infections can attack multiple bodily organs, which seriously weakens the patient. Today, many drug therapies can strengthen the immune system and prolong the life of the AIDS patient, but there is currently no medicine.
