Visible Biology | Lesson 9, Part 1: Innate Immunity

Let’s get medieval! In part one of two on the topic of immunity, Dr. Cindy Harley explains how your body is basically a castle and your innate immune system acts as the peasant army, castle sentries, and royal soldiers that fight to keep enemy invaders (in this case, viruses and bacteria) from taking the throne. So, put on your best armor and join your white blood cells as they prepare for battle!
