I wonder whether the immune system can react against multiple infections at the same time and if so, whether they use a common strategy. Or else you could imagine the immune system like a restaurant chef handling several dishes (infections) at the same time an d finishing them off one after another. Of course, there has to be some common ground which might be the innate system.
So, I ask if someone were to be infected with HIV and malaria then would the protection against malaria be able to protect them against HIV?
