AIDS, the full medical name is "acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-AIDS", is an infectious disease caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). It is worth mentioning that HIV itself will not cause any diseases, but when the immune system is destroyed by HIV, the human body will die of other diseases due to loss of resistance! Generally speaking, AIDS is a serious infectious disease in which the immune system of human body is destroyed by AIDS virus, which makes human body lose resistance to various life-threatening pathogens, produces various infections or tumors, and finally leads to death. This virus is contagious for life, destroying people's immune system and making people lose their ability to resist various diseases. When the immune function of HIV-infected people is severely damaged by the virus, so that it is impossible to maintain the minimum disease resistance, the infected people will develop into AIDS patients. With the decrease of human immunity, the frequency of human infection with various pathogenic microorganisms will become higher and higher, and the degree of infection will become more and more serious, which will eventually lead to death due to various compound infections. Aids is mainly transmitted through blood, improper sex, drug abuse and mother-to-child inheritance. So far, there are no effective drugs and treatments for the prevention and treatment of AIDS in the international medical community. Therefore, AIDS is also called "super cancer" and "century killer".
HIV, referred to as HIV, is a virus that can attack the human immune system. It targets T4 lymphocytes, which are the most important in the human immune system, devours and destroys T4 lymphocytes in large quantities, thus destroying the human immune system, eventually causing it to collapse, and making the human body sick and die because of losing its resistance to various diseases. Scientists call this virus "human immunodeficiency virus". The average incubation period of HIV in human body is 12 to 13 years. They look normal before they develop into AIDS patients, and they can live and work for many years without any symptoms.
The transliteration of the English abbreviation AIDS has been translated into "AIDS" and "love to death". 198 1 was first discovered and confirmed in America. After the virus invades, the human body loses its immune function and is easily infected with other diseases and dies. Usually transmitted through sexual contact, intravenous injection and blood transfusion. Known as the "plague of the 20th century".
