Whether or not the response succeeds depends very much on your body's ability to distinguish between cells that belong to it and cells that do not.

What systems are affected by the common cold?
The hundreds of different viruses responsible for causing a common cold all make their attack on the human body in the upper respiratory tract. The virus particles attach to the cells of the mucous tissue in sinuses, nose, mouth, eyes, throat and trachea first. The bronchial tubes and lungs also can be affected.
