I am lost one this one, I thought it had something to do with the white blood cells or something.

Helper T. THis is why the HIV Virus is so virulent. it weakens the bodies immune defense by using the very cells that provide protection for its own reproduction.

A. helper T

These cells can be estimated using a reagent called "CD4", so they are often called "CD4 lymphocytes". To check how bad the HIV effect is in a patient, their ratio of CD4 to another type (CD8) is often measured; the CD4 / CD8 ratio.
