Boosting your immune system against COVID-19

 Immunity is the capacity of multicellular organisms to resist harmful microorganisms. The immune system protects your body from foreign invaders such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and toxins.

When your body is able to resist a foreign organism that may cause disease conditions most especially by preventing the development of a pathogenic microorganism, then, it means your body is well immuned

There are basically two types of immunity; Active Immunity and Passive Immunity. I will not enter into the detail of these types of immunity. A video will be dedicated to that.
