      Hi alb*456
      The process of birth is relatively quick, so lets talk about before birth and after birth. Before birth a mother can pass antibodies against viruses to her child so you can become immune to some before birth and after birth as you are exposed to more and more viruses you add to your immune system. Immunology is an amazing science and career related to medicine – all about how the body reacts to foreign particles!!
