While "Immunity" by Clairo is a no-skips album, it doesn't explain how the immune system works. Osmosis is here to do that instead with today's #ClinicalCuts!

Your immune system is like the military with two main branches: the innate immune response and the adaptive immune response.

Key features of the innate immune response are that the cells are non-specific, meaning that they don’t distinguish one invader from another invader; the response is really fast, occurring within minutes to hours; and there’s no memory associated with innate responses.

In other words, the innate response will respond to the same pathogen in the exact same way no matter how many times it sees the pathogen.
