unable to mount an adequate response, either due to genetic
conditions (primary immunodeficiency) or acquired factors
(secondary immunodeficiency).

Transfusion Reaction (Type II Hypersensitivity)
A transfusion reaction occurs when a patient receives incompatible
blood, leading to an immune-mediated attack on transfused red
blood cells (RBCs). This is a classic example of Type II (Cytotoxic)
Hypersensitivity, where antibodies (IgG or IgM) target antigens on
