What is the body's first line of defence against hiv?
The body's first line of defense against HIV is the mucous membranes. These membranes act as a physical barrier that helps prevent the virus from entering the body through openings like the mouth, nose, and genitals. Additionally, the mucous membranes also produce substances like mucus and enzymes that can help trap and eliminate pathogens like HIV.
Why HIV is so hard to treat?
HIV has devised clever strategies that allow it to persist for many years in an infected person. HIV splices its genes into those of the host, so it is intimately associated with a variety of cells. The virus hides in certain reservoirs in the body that are not easily reached by current drugs. Moreover, as HIV spreads in an infected individual, it undergoes changes. Thus, many variants of HIV can exist even within a single person. This variation allows HIV to escape from the patient's immune system or from some antiviral drugs. We're not treating one virus, but many thousands of slightly different viruses, each tenaciously integrated into host cells. A realistic goal for the treatment of HIV-infected individuals is not to totally rid the body of HIV, but to suppress it so that it does not cause disease and is not efficiently transmitted to anyone else.
Hiv does the greatest damage to what?
HIV primarily targets the immune system, specifically the CD4 cells, also known as T-helper cells. By depleting the body's CD4 cells, HIV weakens the immune system, making it harder for the body to fight off infections and diseases. This can lead to the development of AIDS if left untreated.
