    immune system fails to protect the body properly

    Immune Dysfunction, also known as Immune System Disorder, refers to a condition where the immune system does not function properly. This can manifest as an overactive immune response, leading to autoimmune diseases where the body attacks its own tissues, or an underactive response, resulting in immunodeficiency where the body is unable to effectively fight off infections. Examples include conditions like rheumatoid arthritis (autoimmune) and HIV/AIDS (immunodeficiency).
