Day 11: Problems with the Immune System

We're jumping back into the textbook in where we left off. We previously worked on CH 27-2 on the basics of the Immune System. Here's Kurzgesagt in a Nutshell's review.

Sometimes the Immune Response doesn't work and that can lead to all kinds of problems like Cancer and Autoimmune Diseases. The current coronavirus is a problem because it's new to humans (so no one has antibodies and there's no vaccine) and for some of us our Immune System (specifically cytokines) can overreact.

We're going to be operating out of the book briefly before we research diseases in general. Book pages will be included in your Google Slides assignment shared through our Google Classroom. Here's how it's going to look.
