Many years ago, there was a famous case of a boy born with severe combined immune
deficiency (SCID). His physicians placed him in a pathogen-free chamber that resembled a
giant glass bubble. What purpose was served by doing this? What treatments are available
today that might have helped this boy?

The purpose was so that he could be protected from other diseases that could make his deficiency worse or possibly kill him. A treatment that is available today that could help him would be a stem transplant also known as a bone marrow transplant.
