Let’s learn about how our body’s immune system protects us from germs like viruses! We’ve gotten so many awesome questions from students this year who are curious about germs that cause infectious diseases and why COVID-19 seems so much harder to fight off. We made this video in the spring of 2020 to give an overview of how your immune system works to fight germs. Since then, we have made a full video series called Tiny Germs, Big Questions with even more info on the immune system, microbes that cause infectious disease, prevention and information on vaccines and possible side effects.
