Navigating Complexities of the SARS-CoV-2 Immunobiology: The Science behind the COVID-19 Pandemic offers a comprehensive exploration of the immune response to COVID-19. This volume brings together research and insights from leading experts to address key aspects of COVID-19 immunology, including T cell responses, cytokine storms, immune evasion strategies, and the impact on preexisting conditions. It also examines the long-term implications of the disease, such as long COVID and its intersection with autoimmunity, as well as the role of the microbiome. This compilation provides a deep understanding of the durability of immune responses post-infection and vaccination, presenting novel perspectives on therapeutic approaches and the path forward in combating this global pandemic.
