The COVID-19 virus infects cells of the respiratory system. The virus spreads by moving from one cell to the next. While the virus moves from one cell to the next, it will outside of the cell temporarily and can be taken up by an antigen-presenting cell (APC) for processing and presentation. Explain how these antigens would be presented on the surface of these cells so that the immune system could react against it. What cells would recognise these antigens and why?
