Top HIV Flashcards

HIV is the Human Immunodeficiency Virus, a subgroup of retrovirus that causes the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome, also known as AIDS. HIV occurs from the transfer of blood, semen, vaginal fluids, breast milk, saliva and pre-ejaculate. It is a very serious and deadly virus, once infected you only have a life expectancy of 9 to 11 years and there is still no cure as of today.

HIV affects vital cells in your immune system, such as Helper T cells, macrophages and dendritic cells, which make it very important for you to get checked out, and use proper medication if needed.
