- How does our immune system protect us against diseases? What do our white blood cells do during an infection?
In Episode 2 of our short animation series, we take a look at the various white blood cells that are an essential part of our immune system. This video provides an overview of the function of each type of cell, and how interactions between different white blood cells are required to create an effective immune response.
When a pathogen enters our body, it can start to multiply inside us, making us ill. How does our immune system respond to fight off the pathogen? Our immune system contains a variety of white blood cells that all have their own role to play in protecting us from disease.
The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of better understanding our immune system, and how it works alone, and alongside medicine, to keep the world safe from infectious diseases.

The science behind our body’s functions is fascinating
What a great intro to a lesson. He’s introducing the topic of cells and pathogens to his students using the kids’ initial as the pathogen and the dvd as the cell that attacks and gets rid of the pathogen/initial. Well, I’m assuming that’s the lesson. Either way, excellent teaching.
