HIV, AIDS AND STD's
HIV
HIV stands for human immunity deficiency virus. HIV weakens the body immune system by entering into white blood cell (lymphocytes) and binds itself to chromosome and integrates into the genetic material. The virus now multiplies very fast using genetic materials of White Blood Cells. The daughter virus invades White Blood Cells destroy and kill them. As more White Blood Cells are killed the body becomes less and less fight against disease. Patient with aids are prone to opportunistic infection caused by fungi, bacteria and protozoa.
In nutshell people with AIDS die with disease their body cannot resist. These diseases are referred to as opportunistic infection. E.g. tuberculosis, severe diarrhea, skin cancer and pneumonia.
AIDS
AIDS stand for; Acquire Immune Deficiency Syndrome. For someone with AIDS T-helper fall below.
the T-helper count for health person range between 450 and 1200
CAUSES
AIDS is viral infection caused by a strain of a virus called HIV. HIV means Human Immunodeficiency Virus. HIV mainly found in body fluids such as blood, semen and vaginal secretion. Also traces of HIV found on saliva, tear and sweat
Primary stage (window stage) : It does not show any symptoms except for slight flu HIV test result is negative
A-symptomatic stage : Has no symptoms but the HIV test is positive
Full blown aids : Where by one gets various opportunistic infections and diseases
SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTION
These are infection, which are transmitted through sexually contact during sexually intercourse. Sexually transmitted disease are also referred to as venereal disease
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HIV, AIDS AND STD’s

Sexually transmitted diseases are escalating nowadays when more people have started entering into multiple sexual relationships. They might not consider this ethically wrong but the fact remains that such people are more prone to sexual diseases. However, if unfortunately, one gets infected by any such disease, it is better to start treatment as soon as possible because these diseases have the potential to ruin your entire life. People often are embarrassed and scared to disclose their problem to others even to their friends but they fail to realize that delaying diagnose is compromising with their life. Thus, as soon as you fear a sexually transmitted infection (STI), approach a doctor.

This is a presentation on HIV more commonly known as AIDS. There are lot of HIV possitive patients in this world, and we need to treat them with sympathy and care. Let's not hate them.
HIV is a minimal virus that can cause AIDS. AIDS is not a disease in itself but a syndrome. It reduces human's natural immunity to fight other diseases. Any opportunistic infection due to gradual decay of immunity, i.e. from common cold to common cold, to diseases like pleurisy, tuberculosis, tuberculosis, cancer, becomes easy and difficult to treat and even death of the patient. Might be possible.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.

Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) is a
communicable disease that is spread from a person
through sexual contact.
The organisms that cause sexually diseases may pass
in blood, semen and other bodily fluids
What is STI?

HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus)- a virus that
attacks cells that help the body to fight infection. It
weakens immune system which makes a person
vulnerable to any diseases and has no cure. You can
be able to know effectively if you have HIV if you
get tested to be treated with medicine.
AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) – it
