HIV

"HIV = AIDS?

First it is important to note that HIV and AIDS are not the same!

What is the difference?

HIV is the virus that causes AIDS. Not all people who carry HIV have AIDS, but all have AIDS if they carry HIV. HIV turns into AIDS when the immune system weakens and allows the body to become infected with other diseases such as tuberculosis or herpes. These are called "opportunistic infections" because they use the opportunity provided by HIV to infect the body. AIDS or HIV if you do not kill people, but the diseases they bring.

How long does it take for HIV to become AIDS?

The manifestation of the disease of AIDS depends on many factors, including:

1. The rate of HIV in the patient.
2. The general state of health.
3. access to health care.
4. age.

manifest itself usually takes between 5 to 10 years without treatment, death occurs one to two years after the first opportunistic infection. HIV carrier should be careful and protect themselves against an alleged repeated infection. It is possible that the bearer can return to get the virus, which weaken the immune system much.

People infected with HIV pass through three states:

• asymptomatic carrier: those people who are infected with HIV and yet your body does not have any symptoms, whether the virus is latent or dormant form.
• AIDS Related Complex (ARC), these people show some symptoms related to infection, since the virus is activated and has begun to weaken the immune system.
• and in this third state appears that AIDS is a disease that disables the ability of the immune system. It is characterized by fatigue and significant weight loss and neurological complications due to brain cell damage.

The society manages to differentiate between HIV and AIDS? Did I do the same achievement?

Is it our duty as readers can convey that we know? We must remember that HIV is no respecter of gender or social class, knows no age limits do not recognize or even know our dreams and projects, but if you are able to transform my life, is able to get away from beings I love most, and most importantly is able to get away from myself .
