==Immunity and cure==
There are two types of immunity to ELID, designated “semi-immunosome” and “pan-immunosome”.<ref>{{cite|gfl|ms|Ariadne’s Clew III}}</ref> Semi-immunosome humans can be in close contact with Collapse radiations or ELID infected with no adverse effects. Semi-immunosome immunity can be innate or acquired. Known semi-immunosomes include [[Machlian]] (innate) and [[the Commander]] (acquired).<ref>{{cite|gfl|ms|Atropos’ Shears I}}</ref> [[Kawasaki Kazusa]], [[Isomer White]] and [[Nyto]]s are immunosomes of unknown type.
The search for an effective, cheaply produced and easily distributed ELID cure sunk many pharmaceutical companies who tried to synthesize it. Some advocated that ELID cures were only tackling the symptoms of a wider environmental problem,<ref>{{cite|gfl|ms|Torricelli’s Trumpet II}}</ref> but a variety of cheap fraudulent cures or protective products were sold in the streets of Green Zones.<ref>{{cite|gfl|ms|Ship of Theseus I}}</ref> In 2064, Galatea Technology Corporation, backed by [[Paradeus]], attempted to put on the market the Idunn Formulation Type-III, supported by renowned surgeon Lady [[Gray]].<ref>{{cite|gfl|ms|Torricelli’s Trumpet I}}</ref>
