Neither because there is no memory

Detailed explanation-1: -Specifically, cells of our adaptive immune system, such as T cells and B cells, can mount specificity for the antigen, and these adaptive cells provide memory that lasts up to several decades in the body. Classically, innate immune cells have been thought to lack immunological memory.
Detailed explanation-2: -Once the immune response is complete, many of these cells die by apoptosis restoring the immune response to its original size-with one major change. Some of the B and T cells become memory cells, which are basically a pool of lymphocytes that are all set to combat the pathogen, if they encounter it again!
Detailed explanation-3: -Memory B cells, like memory T cells, help the immune system respond more quickly to future invasions by the same agent.
