1 answer:
vlabodo [156]3 years ago
6 0

<u>Answer: </u>

Viral infections are difficult to defend as viruses are attacked by a nonspecific immune response.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • Viral infections often tend to weaken the immune system of the body by turning it incapable of fighting the virus.
  • Any external drug administered to fight the virus also leaves an impact on the beneficial cells causing them to cause side effects.
  • The response of the immune system to the virus often fails to address the root of the virus and hence, the virus keeps growing stronger.
