Knowing more about HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus)

HIV is a virus that breaks down immune cells in the body, thereby weakening it significantly. An individual with HIV is then susceptible to a range of infections and diseases, which can further impact their immune system. The best approach is to get tested immediately and start with medication right away.

In the later stages of HIV, the person may develop AIDS which is acquired immune deficiency syndrome. In this stage the person's immune system is significantly compromised. While there is no known cure for AIDS, strict adherence to ARVs (antiretroviral regimens can dramatically slow the progression of the disease.
