While helper T cells do not attack the pathogens, they activate and guide other immune cells to attach the pathogen, without them, the immune system will not operate effectively and sometimes not at all. The loss of these cells causes the immune system to not work properly and as a result, the body is less able to fight off diseases and the individual will usually die from opportunistic infections.
