No, unfortunately not. It is when an internal/external cause makes the reservoir produce gross amounts of viral cells that that the immune response only then “kicks” in. In the “down” times the reservoir is hidden and the immune response and drugs can’t find it. We need to continue research to figure out how it knows how to hide from the body’s defenses.

I answered your question from watching the video – I could have never understood it if it hadn’t been so clearly explained through the example he used. Amazing.

This just makes me want to play with army men. (And Legoues).

I know NOTHING about viruses – as my comment will make very clear :-)

Is the virus source/reservoir detectable by the immune response/drugs when it’s actively producing after a stress response is detected? If so, during this phase, could it be attacked?

Could a long(er) term outbreak of the active state be induced artificially, giving the immune response time to mount an attack on the source?
Short term suffering for overall benefit?

The “Legos” spelling always jumps out for me too. Is it an American thing? In NZ no one says “Legos”. I think Australia is the same.

Very interesting video too!

Once again… the plural of Lego is Lego.
