This course covers the immunology of COVID-19, focusing on its pathology and clinical implications. The learning outcomes include understanding the initial viral infection, innate immune response, T cell and antibody responses, antibody testing in public health, clinical interpretation, T cell and B cell response measurements, paraprotein production, joint inflammation, post-COVID syndrome, and more. The course teaches skills such as interpreting antibody tests, measuring T cell responses, and understanding the significance of antibodies. The teaching method involves expert-led seminars and discussions. The intended audience includes healthcare professionals, pathologists, immunologists, researchers, and individuals interested in understanding the immunological aspects of COVID-19.

This course is very intresting and easly understand, it's covers how does our immunity interfere with COVID 19 which is one of the largest infectious disease does affecred a world wide.
Beside the COVID infection our the immune system they exaggerates the reaction and they are the main causes of system inflammation and but the patient critically ill.
Thanks Dr Alex Richter.
