Fact: the government i making us to do something (vaccination, restrict tobacco use, etc); Fact: herd immunity provides protection to unprotected individuals. Implication: non-immunized community can get the disease by infected outsider. Diseases that caused by the response of the immune system. Immunity working harder than necessary against infection. Allergies are abnormal sensitivities to antigens in the environment. Genes that make you more susceptible to the allergen. When exposed, it is activating b cells. Next time we are exposed to the antigen, it will bind to the receptor cells. The government i making us to do something (vaccination, restrict tobacco use, etc); This opens the cells and histamine leaves the cell which attack blood vessel cells.
