18:29 The difference is that those cells combat the worm directly, so the symptoms happen close to where the worm is. When you are allergic to some food, for example, the particles of the food get absorbed and then are distributed along the entire body. Also, the worm is a big singular thing, while the bits of food are billions or trillions of tiny things with a bigger surface area by orders of magnitude.
Evolution is slow we'll probably need to modify ourselves with biotechnology like gene editing to deal with allergies. Need to learn more first though.

Plus worms weaken the response, so the damage is lessened. Now without worms the response is more dangerous and is used against much weaker stimuli.
