Reply to comment by man-vs-spider in Does the immune system have a limit on memory for vaccines? Can we vaccinate against any and all microorganisms if we wanted to? by AdiSoldier245

Again, explain to me why there would be a limit ? And answer will reveal itself. The human body has been always been able to adapt to intruders. Whether by evolution or mutation. There is no limit to antidotes.

If you want to know if its lethal if you inject a thousand vaccins whithin 24 hr hours, I assume its very likely.

I mean, we probably can’t be immune to 100 trillion diseases because that’s more than the number of cells in the body. So is it more likely that our immune system can recognize closer to 50 diseases? 100 diseases? 1,000,000 diseases?

The fact that organisms can mutate/evolve is irrelevant because the question is about the “memory” capacity of the immune system
