Today we are continuing our lesson on HIV/AIDS. The students are very inquisitive and there are some things that I as a teacher cannot discuss. Please allow your child ask the questions that I can't. Thank you for your support.
Students are to memorize the following steps for "How the Immune System Defends the Body Against Germs and Viruses"
-Germs invade the body and quickly begin to multiply
-The germs attack the body, causing illness
-The immune system fights back. Macrophages swallow some of the germs. Macrophages also signal the T Cells that the body is being attack
-T Cells signal white blood cells to produce antibodies. Antibodies help destroy some of the germs.
-Antibodies help to finally destroy all of the germs. The body is healthy again.
"How HIV Affects a Person's Immune System"
-HIV enters the body and attacks T Cells and Macrophages
-The viruses multiply inside the T Cells. The new viruses are released into the blood and can attack other T Cells
-This process goes on for many year, but the person shows no signs of HIV infection or illness
-As more and more T Cells are destroyed, the immune system is weakened
-The immune system and the body continue to grow weaker. The body cannot fight off germs. It begins to show symptoms of infection. The person will die without treatment.
