If it does not replicate, does that mean it doesn't harm the cell it enters?

I also wondered that. Even if it doesn't replicate inside a T lymphocyte could it damage it thereby weakening the immune response as a side effect?

To a complete layperson (myself) it seems that anything entering a cell it's not supposed to isn't going to help that cell out much. I would appreciate some expert commentary though if anyone has some!
