Chapter 2: The Human Immune System - Our Defense Forces

Published almost 3 years ago • 1 min read

Phew, it's finally ready!

About a month back, I had published the first chapter of my e-book 'Covid-19. Explained.' on the basic science of Covid-19.

I was quite overwhelmed by the response - thank you!

Of course, the response just raised the bar for the next chapter for me.

And, while working on the same, as I shared last week, I got a bit lost in the ocean of immunology.

In this second chapter, I've tried my best to simplify an incredibly complex (and utterly fascinating) phenomenon - the human immune system and its response to Covid-19.

Let me know what you think. Here you go: Covid-19 Explainer v2.pdf

Many many thanks to Prof. Satyajit Rath for his invaluable inputs.
