According to U.S Research AIDS stands
for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. It is caused by a special type of
virus, The human immunodeficiency
virus (HIV) which attact certain
kinds of lymphocytes and thus weakens the body`s immune response. HIV is
transmitted by direct infection of the blood and y the use of infected needls.
It can also be transmitted sexually both between man and woman. After infection
the symptoms does not appear immediately but it takes years. So people may
carry virus yet not show any sympotoms. Death does not resulf from the virus it
self, but form disease such as pneumonia, blood disorders, skin cancer or
damage to the nervous system which the body can not resist. This disease is not
ransmitted by droplets, by saliva or by normal every ay contract. There is no
effective drugs or vaccines against it. However research is carried on with
hope of fruitful results.
