Understanding HIV / AIDS

HIV/AIDS is a serious medical condition caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), which weakens the immune system by attacking CD4 cells. This can lead to Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), the advanced stage of the disease. HIV/AIDS can be transmitted through unprotected sex, sharing contaminated needles, mother-to-child transmission, or blood transfusions. Symptoms can vary, ranging from flu-like symptoms in the early stages to severe complications as the disease progresses. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) is the standard treatment for HIV, helping individuals live long and healthy lives. Prevention, including safe sex practices, HIV testing, and access to clean needles, is crucial, along with addressing stigma and discrimination associated with the disease.

Understanding HIV/AIDS is crucial in addressing this serious medical condition. HIV weakens the immune system, leading to AIDS if left untreated. Transmission can occur through various means, and symptoms can range from mild to severe. However, advancements in treatment, such as ART, allow individuals with HIV to live fulfilling lives. Prevention strategies, including safe sex practices and access to clean needles, play a vital role in curbing the spread of HIV/AIDS. It is equally important to combat stigma and discrimination to create a supportive environment for those affected by the disease.
