However, once it has activated itself, the virus quickly destroys the T cells, damaging the immune system and causing immunodeficiency. This is the stage when the symptoms of AIDS become evident.

It was observed, particularly for the HIV virus, that as a first step by the immune system, this phenomenon does not allow the immune system to develop specific antibodies for all viral antigens.
