Describe the process by which a dose of microorganisms entering the body through a cut in the skin progresses through innate immune activation and recognition by the adaptive immune system, up to the point of T and B cell activation. Please discuss where this process occurs, and how the structure of the tissue it occurs in is relevant to the process. Address the problem of maximizing the chance that antigen will come into contact with the relevant antigen binding T or B cell.

A person was admitted to hospital for a car accident and sustained a fracture in his right arm and left leg with burns of total burn surface area of 68% and injury in his head and neck due to accident but with no fracture in them. He stayed in coma for 3 days to control his situation and the severity of brain injury is measured by the Glasgow Coma Scale and found to be 14. The patient had no previous medical or nutritional problems. The patient had a surgery for his leg (installation for hip joint), but all other problem were solved with no surgeries. An inflammation happened to his hip after the surgery where the physician delayed his discharge from the hospital. The patient weight upon his admission to hospital is 109 Kg and his height is 188 cm.
