What about T-cells? Do you mean only in localised infections?

[IMG SURVIVOR]

T cells are in charge of localizing the infection, for example PPD test, but Neutrophils are in charge of not letting the candida spread.

I am not sure I understand what you mean by "localizing the infection". Could you explain?
