| Exact synonym | mitigation of host defenses by virus, perturbation of host defense response by virus, regulation of defense response to virus by virus, viral regulation of antiviral response |
| Description | A process in which a virus interferes with the ability of the host to mount a defense in response to its presence. Host defenses may be induced by the presence of the virus or may be preformed (e.g. physical barriers). The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction. |
