The authors substantiated the assumptions of virus-induced modification of membranes as the central link in the pathogenesis of viral diseases. The defensive response of the body to viral inoculation was based on the basis of rapid mobilization of all existing factors of nonspecific stability and the following engagement of defense mechanisms which formulated de novo.
