The purpose of this write-up is to provide up-to-date report on HIV / AIDS and, of course, HIV / AIDS in the most recent report, since it is very popular and known worldwide as one of the major causes of death throughout the world, and perhaps the greatest threat to mankind that has kept scientists at work for decades and still has not proven scientific medicine yet. But, unfortunately, the UK Health Protection Agency, estimated that a quarter of all people with HIV are unaware they are infected.
If you ever had sex with someone whose HIV status was not known from the blood, may have contracted HIV without realizing -. People who look very healthy can have HIV without knowing
Although HIV and AIDS are used interchangeably, it would be nice to specify the difference between the two. HIV means Human Immunodeficiency Virus AIDS means Acquired immune deficiency syndrome. AIDS as a result of a sustained attack on the immune system of HIV.
human immunodeficiency virus is a retrovirus, and they enter the body through direct contact with blood or other bodily fluids, and when it enters the body, weakens the body's immune system (to attack or kill T lymphocytes and CD4 cells that protects the body from different incoming infection), making it weak to fight against the disease agent.
When the immune system becomes very weak to fight any infection back into the body, it means that the patient may suffer serious illness due to minor infection, and thus can lead to death (from AIDS-related illness) - at this stage (according to the HIV / AIDS in the most recent report), when the body's immune system is weak, the patient is said to be suffering from AIDS. Thus, AIDS is said to be opportunistic infections (opportunistic infections are infections that would not normally affect otherwise healthy people often, it is these infections that cause disease or death among HIV-positive people -. Not the virus itself). However, the HIV / AIDS in the latest report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, CD4 cell counts below 200 means that a person has AIDS. When HIV enters the body, it infects T-cells and takes over the activities of these white blood cells, so the virus can replicate. Finally, HIV infection threatens the entire immune system and causes AIDS.
STAGE:
1.Prisutnost virus in the blood system marks the first phase of infection. And at this stage of the virus undetectable in the border, but the formation of various antibodies in the body.
2 Seroconversion is the second phase, which is the stage where there are lots of antibody production in the body in the fight against HIV -. Flu-like symptoms may occur at this stage
3.Treća phase is the phase where there is no sign of infection, a patient May not know about the disease at all, unless checked, it may take several years.
4 At this stage, the CD4 count falls below 200 -. Stage, where the body's immune system was completely weak and it can lead to infection and it is at this stage that the infection is called AIDS, according to a report
