Give an explanation ! The digital readout for this patient’s CBC reveals an increased population of neutrophils. Based on what you know about immunity, does this finding correlate with the patient’s possible diagnosis of meningitis? A. Yes. Increased neutrophils are an indication of active infection. B. No. Increased neutrophils do not correlate with infection.
