HIV:

virus that only humans can contract it, and it attacks the immune system.

spread through exchange of bodily fluid (sex without  protection, shared needles and pregnancy 👶)

During latency period, HIV patients may not experience symptoms at all

A blood or saliva test and antigens can detect those antibodies that determine if HIV is present inside the body

HIV destroys immune cells called CD4 cells

Medications can control HIV very successfully by interrupting its viral life cycle 💊

Aids:

condition or stage 3 of HIV

develops when HIV has caused serious damage to the immune system.

symptoms that vary from person to person; opportunistic infections include tuberculosis, pneumonia, and others if without antiretroviral therapy.

one way healthcare providers diagnose AIDS is to do a count of those cells as:

*** normal person: 500-1200 CD4 cells
*** stage 3 of HIV patients: 200 cells

Other way will be the existence of opportunistic infections : diseases caused by viruses, fungi, or bacteria that would not make a person with an undamaged immune system sick

Adherence to antiretroviral therapy can prevent stage 3 HIV from developing

However 😨😨😨

An HIV infection doesn’t necessarily progress to stage 3/Aids due to medical advances nowadays

Because there is no cure, the HIV infection never goes away 😥 , even if AIDS never develops
