It gives your immune system the head start. Viruses are very good at changing their shape to avoid the immune system. I am working to try to design vaccines to target the achilles heel of viruses, the part of the virus that is so essential it being able to survive and replicate that it can’t change it so it can’t ‘mutate’ to hide from the immune system. | I'm a Scientist 2024 | 2024 |
