down of the immune response.

The cell-mediated immune response consists of three stages: 1) the activation and
attack by the T-cells, 2) proliferation of the suppressor cells that shut down the
immune response, and 3) the persistence of the memory cells. After completing
the active defense, the time has now come to withdraw. For this, the suppressor
T-cells rapidly begin to multiply and accelerate the halting of the response.

The Immune System Returns to Normal

This activity, which has been described in some detail,
depicts the situation in the body under exceptional circum-
stances. Were it to continue in an uncontrolled manner—if the
B-cells continued to multiply even after the disease was van-
quished, and if the T-cells rushed everywhere setting all the
defensive cells in motion—then an unrestrained and pointless
war would drag on. This would lead to healthy cells being
damaged and the body suffering extreme fatigue and
exhaustion.
In order to prevent this, the "news" that the war is
over needs to be spread throughout the entire body.
