Reply to comment by aTacoParty in Why do symptoms of viral illness come on so suddenly days after exposure? by CoveredinCatHairs

By intense immune response, do you mean a cytokine storm/multi system inflammatory syndrome?

This was a really helpful answer, by the way. Thank you.

Yes! But the response doesn't necessarily have to reach the level of cytokine storm for anti-inflammatories to be helpful.
