Larissa Bernard · Answer 1

The harmful effects can be diminished by blocking the activities of T cells and cytokines.

Explanation:

The strategies that should be followed for diminishing the harmful effects are -

1. By blocking molecular determinants on superantigens that interacts with T cells.

2. By neutralizing circulating cytokines.

3. By blocking the secretion of proteins by bacterial cells.

4. By blocking the way of the release of cytokines from T cells.
