why is it difficult to design medicine against aids
Answers
Why?
Imagine if an arsonist had set fire to the local firehouse. How can anyone come to the rescue when the very equipment required for the fight is set ablaze? This is exactly the challenge we face with HIV.
In a cunning display of viral fitness, HIV has evolved to target cells of the immune system, attacking our body’s emergency response team serving to fight off invading organisms. These immune cells—macrophages, dendritic cells, and T cells—express a protein on their surface called CD4, which plays a critical role in immune system communication and happens to be hijacked by HIV, allowing the virus to gain entry and manipulate the immune system during infection. As more and more CD4 cells become infected, they begin to die off.
"We know more about HIV today than ever before, and our pace of progress is unprecedented."
On top of this, HIV can even kill uninfected immune system cells, a phenomenon we are just beginning to understand. This is why HIV is named the “human immunodeficiency virus”. When the immune system is damaged, it is treacherously difficult for your body to fight against HIV or other opportunistic infections
The reason we can't design medicine against AIDS is because it's a virus and not a disease.
