White blood cells are apart of your body’s immune system. They’re responsible for protecting your body against infections. A white blood cell (WBC) count measures the number of white blood cells in your blood, and a WBC differential determines the percentage of each type of white blood cell present in your blood.
They can help test for Bacterial, Viral and Parasitic Infections, rheumatoid arthritis, Cancers, HIV infections, sepsis, allergic reactions, etc.
