However, RNA viruses like SARS-CoV-2, which causes Covid-19, escape recognition by evading IFN.
The virus does this by forcing the body to make more of a chemical called prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) which inhibits IFN as well as causing the destruction of some white blood cells.
'As low-dose aspirin inhibits PGE2 biosynthesis, this mechanism might enhance anti-viral immunity via induction of type I IFN,' the researchers write.
