Q

How do neutralizing antiB targed the virus

A

early

late

33
Q

Goal of infectious virus

A

hold host at bay long enought to undergo replication rlease at the level of cell’s anitival response and the immune system

34
Q

6 steps to viral life cycle

A

species or tissue tropism

39
Q

Receptors may be ubiquitious or cell type specific

Virus recognition of its receptors is important for determing:

A

host range, (humans vs others) and cell tropism (which cell type it will infect)
