Fill in the missing words about immunity to fungal infections | Cutaneous and superficial fungal infections are normally self-limiting with recovery associated with a resistance to re-infection. As hosts often develop delayed-type hypersensitivity this resistance appears to be cell-mediated. | Link to Answer Article |
