There are certain cells in the blood whose surfaces have holes all over that exactly fit every kind of bacteria and virus that you are immune to. The germs fall into those holes, are captured, and cannot cause infection.
Now, along comes a bunch of a certain virus that you are not immune to - they do not fit any holes in those certain cells. The certain cells try to grab the new viruses, but can't, so they release a tiny bit of chemical that travels in the bloodstream to the brain, causing the brain to release a tiny bit of chemical into the bloodstream that starts up the disease-fighting mechanisms of your body.
