A) The virus produces cell surface receptors that bind to pathogens, making it easier for those pathogens to be infective.
B) Synthesising a DNA copy of the viral genome makes a person fell sick.
C) HIV attacks and destroys the T helper cells, which are central to mounting an effective immune response, making those individuals more susceptible to other infections.
