I snipped:
Can anyone source this? It's too strong a statement to go without a source. jdb ❋ 03:46, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
I changed "HIV virus" to "HIV", as the V stands for virus.
Not exactly sure why Clinical immunology was spun off but it's probably a useless fork. Then again, maybe this was done on purpose but I don't think the current length of this article really justifies it. Pascal.Tesson 03:29, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
Immunology is the study of the elements of the immune system in mammals (including man), and how they work to produce immune responses. Clinical Immunology is the study of diseases resulting from failure or aberrant actions of the immune system in man - although similar aberrations occur in animals and give rise to the study and practice of Veterinary Immunology(thompsra)
Aberrant actions in man take place as I have felt,due to shortage of some "CURRENCIES" in males that may be due to excessive ejaculations and that at ages not enough to compensate for the loss of male gamets thereby creating a sort of pressure on stem cells that produce these gamets.
When this happens for a long period or some special chemicals are added into the human body conscience may hit causing following changes: 1.A person may become more emotional.Actually as stem cells are pressured these changes do appear but as the state of mind goes through some sort of rebooting the condition is restored. This occurs most probably when during an activity a lot of enthusiasm is demanded failing to quench this chemical/s is secreted causing limbic systems associated with the act of controlling emotions to be disturbed that immediately distracts the person and may make him feel weak,afraid,nervous. Most probably it's thymus,heart tissue that secrete them. 2.The person may believe or feel the need to believe in religion. This may well be felt if the person was already not religious. 3.The person may go back evolutionarily. I think entropy of brain is an important criteria to estimate this.Inorder to cope up with changes brain restricts its activities that help in evolution and so- something had to be diffrentiated into "good acts"from other. This may well induce the feeling that drive into religious talks,expressions,infuencing,and as a consequence of this(say, the shape of brain becomes like that so that it continues performing that even when the actual cause of chemicals has subsided so that some unrelated with evolutionary benefits some beliefs crop up)end up into conflicts.It encourages nepotism,communalism(community+ism),etc 4.this being heritable results in different "co-ordinates" of different people in the world with different immunity.He survives who went in line with evolution/who went alon where nature wanted him to go by passing the blind process of selection.
The history section added by 198.28.92.5 (talk · contribs). Was directly copied from the abstract of the following article The birth of immunology. III. The fate of the phagocytosis theory Cell Immunol. 1992 Feb;139(2):505-30. And was thus promply removed.
Does it say anywhere in this article specifically and clearly for the layman whether an immunologist is a medical doctor or a Ph.D.? NO. Imagine the layman who has to find that out and gets instead rerouted to a discussion on the SCIENCE and not the INDIVIDUAL. How unbelievably frustrating!!!!!!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.144.68.238 (talk) 08:18, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
Help please, article cleanup and verification needed. Tim Vickers (talk) 20:33, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
Perhaps this quote can be added:
“ | What does not kill me, makes me stronger. -Friedrich Nietzsche | ” |
The quote refers to fighting of disease and strenghtening a person trough the use of pathogens

This section needs to be rewritten by someone with skills both in the subject at hand and the English language. I made a start at rewriting it with focus on the language, but realized that my knowledge of the subject didn't allow for more than fairly non-consequential alterations. --Osquar F (talk) 10:26, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

No mention here or elsewhere in WP of cryoimmunology or cryoimmunotherapy despite :

This is an opaque reference which is proving quite difficult to place. I would like to know if anyone can indicate the correct source of information. If that has become impossible, then the reference should be replaced with something more current and accessible.
Section 9.1 - is the section on the courses/course structure just advertising? Certainly doesn't seem like it should be here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.149.123.167 (talk) 13:24, 11 October 2015 (UTC)

I moved medicine as leading scope of immunology, especially for that reason:
