If left untreated, it can cause AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome).
There is currently no effective cure. Once you contract HIV, you have it for life.
However, with proper medical care, it can be controlled. People with HIV infection who receive effective treatment can live long, healthy lives and protect their partners.

The chimpanzee version of the virus (called simian immunodeficiency virus, or SIV) may have been transmitted to humans when chimps were hunted for their meat and came into contact with infected blood.

Studies show that HIV may have passed from chimpanzees to humans as early as the late 1800s. The virus spread slowly across Africa over several decades, and then to other parts of the world. We know that the virus has been in the United States since the second half of the 1970s, at the earliest.

It can be spread through sexual contact, injection of illicit drugs or needle sharing, contact with infected blood, or from mother to child during pregnancy, labor, or breastfeeding. HIV destroys CD4 T cells, white blood cells that play an important role in helping the body fight disease. The fewer CD4 T cells you have, the weaker your immune system will be.]]> 2022-08-08 04:37:27 UTC https://padlet.com/kellypanz03/gvfgtd95wdz3i1wm/wish/2256419595 https://padlet.com/kellypanz03/gvfgtd95wdz3i1wm/wish/2256450773 2022-08-08 05:59:15 UTC https://padlet.com/kellypanz03/gvfgtd95wdz3i1wm/wish/2256450773 HIV transmission mayelizurvina https://padlet.com/kellypanz03/gvfgtd95wdz3i1wm/wish/2256712464
Most people who get HIV get it through anal or vaginal sex, or by sharing needles, syringes, or other drug injection equipment like heaters.

You can get HIV if you have anal sex with someone who has HIV without using protection (such as condoms or medicines to treat or prevent HIV infection).
  • Anal intercourse is the type of sexual activity with the highest risk for contracting or transmitting HIV.
  • Vaginal intercourse carries less risk of contracting HIV than receptive anal intercourse.
  • HIV can be passed from mother to baby during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding. However, it is less common due to advances in HIV prevention and treatment.

Other tests look for antibodies in fluids from the mouth (saliva). When the body becomes infected with HIV, it begins to make antibodies against the virus to try to fight it. Although these antibodies cannot fight HIV, they can usually be found in the blood and other body fluids within several weeks of infection. HIV screening tests look for the presence of these antibodies, not the virus itself. The virus is more difficult to detect than antibodies.

HIV testing is available to you at many health care facilities (doctors' offices, hospitals, local clinics, and state health department clinics). And there are also tests that can be purchased at pharmacies to take the samples at home. You can test the sample yourself or send the sample to a laboratory.

  • According to epidemiology reports, the age group most affected and/or diagnosed in the AIDS phase is the range between 25 and 44 years of age.

    • According to the latest epidemiological information on HIV, Panama presents a concentrated epidemic, which means that the prevalence in the general population is less than 1%, and in populations considered key it is greater than 5% (MSM: 20.7% and Trans Women: 29.5%). ).
