3. Introduction
Differences between AIDS and
HIV
HIV (Human Immunodeficiency
Virus) is a virus that only affects
human beings.
Once a person is living with HIV, it
will attack the body’s defense
system,
known as the immune system.
Without treatment, most people
living
with HIV become unable to fight off
germs and other viruses so they can
become very sick.
Differences between AIDS and
HIV
AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency
Syndrome) is a late stage of HIV
disease. According to the CDC, a
person living with HIV has AIDS
when
he or she:
• has a very weakened defense
system, or
• develops a serious illness that we
know can be caused by HIV.

4. History of AIDS
20151995-20141986-1995198519831981
Today, there is still
no vaccine or cure
for HIV, but
treatment is very
effective. For many
people, treatment
for HIV has few or
no side effects
and is as simple as
taking one pill,
once a day. HIV is
now considered a
chronic or long-
term illness that
can be managed.
In late 1995, new
drugs became
available that
changed the path
of the
epidemic. For
the first time, in
1996, the
number of
people dying
from
AIDS finally
began to
decrease.
point.
HIV was found in
men and women
from all walks of
life. Many new
cases
of HIV were
happening in
people who shared
needles to inject
drugs.
This is because
when two people
use the same
needle, they have
contact
with each other’s
blood.
In 1985, the
Food and
Drug
Administration
(FDA) approved
the first blood
test that could
tell if a
person had HIV.
The health
department
began offering
HIV testing
In 1983, HIV
(Human
Immunodeficiency
Virus) was
discovered as the
virus that causes
AIDS. The Centers
for Disease Control
and Prevention
(CDC) found that
HIV was only
passed, or
transmitted,
through contact
with blood, semen
and fluids from the
vagina.
In 1981, an unknown
illness that affected
gay men was
reported in
hospitals in Los
Angeles and New
York City. The illness
was first called
GRID (Gay-Related
Immune Deficiency)
and many people
were dying from
it. Soon the name
was changed to AIDS
(Acquired Immune
Deficiency
Syndrome).

5. Ways of transmission
How Is HIV/AIDS Transmitted?
Sexual contact - HIV is spread most commonly by sexual
contact with an infected partner. The virus enters the body
through the lining of the vagina, vulva, penis, rectum, or mouth
during sexual activity.
Blood contamination - HIV may also be spread through contact
with infected blood. However, due to the screening of blood for
evidence of HIV infection, the risk of acquiring HIV from blood
transfusions is extremely low.
Needles - HIV is frequently spread by sharing needles, syringes,
or drug use equipment with someone who is infected with the
virus.
Mother-infant - HIV also can be spread to babies born to, or
breastfed by, mothers infected with the virus.

6. HIV/AIDS cannot be spread through:
Saliva
Sweat
Tears
Casual contact, such as sharing food utensils, towels, and
bedding
Swimming pools
Telephones
Toilet seats
Biting insects (such as mosquitoes)
Ways of transmission

7. AIDS and dental health
HIV/AIDS and Dental Health
if you, or someone you know, is living with HIV/AIDS, the American Dental
Association recommends that dental health care be part of all HIV/AIDS treatment
plans. That’s because people living with HIV/AIDS are more susceptible to
infections including dental infections, which can affect their overall health.
How Does HIV/AIDS Affect the Mouth?
Your mouth may be the first part of your body to be affected when infected with
HIV. Because infection with HIV will weakened your immune system, this means
you will be susceptible to infections and other problems. In your mouth, this can
cause pain and tooth loss.
