    I would also recommend watching Our Secret Universe: The Hidden Life of the Cell.

    Same quality of animation, a bit simpler explanation, and the narrative of a virus invading one cell in your body and the defences and consequences.

    The human body, and the basic cell, are incredible machines.

    This entire process happens pretty quickly, and is happening more or less across your body millions of times. Biochemistry is fascinating

    why do these strains not tangle, is this different physics at that scale, or are the molecules resistant to build big knots ?

    It’s utterly incredible that this type of sophistication is even possible at such a scale. Not only that, but it has been working successfully for millions (possibly billions) of years. Every single animal on Earth has this going on under its skin. That’s just…mind-blowing.
