How can the immune system interact with smallpox?
The immune system interacts with smallpox through both innate and adaptive responses. Upon infection, innate immune cells recognize the virus and initiate a rapid response, producing cytokines to recruit additional immune cells. The adaptive immune system then generates specific antibodies and T cells that target the smallpox virus, facilitating its clearance and providing long-term immunity. Vaccination, which introduces a harmless form of the virus, primes the immune system to respond effectively to actual smallpox infection, significantly reducing the risk of severe disease.
