Understanding the Immune Response to Viral Infections

When infected with a respiratory virus, our immune system responds by producing more mucus and inflammatory substances called cytokines and chemokines. This can result in congestion, coughing, and fever. The symptoms we experience are mostly caused by our body's efforts to fight the infection. However, most cold and flu symptoms are mild and do not pose a significant risk to our health.
