I wonder how they defined infection?

You know how the immune system is always analogized in terms of war? An invasion getting thrown off the beaches isn't much of an invasion, but one that breaks out of the coast only to be thrown back into the sea within weeks. Is that an invasion?

Think of something like rabies for example, does that get stopped right at the bite wound if you had a preventative shot, or does it get to the nerves then get stopped? As long as it doesn't reach the brain we call that immunity. If the "infection" doesn't get big enough so you never develop the symptoms to even notice that you got an "infection," for all practical reason that's immunity.
