Within the span of a few days, the virus that first entered your body and its decendants are completely wiped out.
After the final battle, the numbers of antibodies, macrophages, B cells, and helper and killer T cells decrease dramatically. What remains, though, are memory B cells and memory T cells. If the virus ever enters the body again, these will quickly move into action and most likely wipe out the invader before it ever gains a stronghold. |
