HIV-AIDS: (Important Notes for Airforce Phase2 Group Discussion)

-It is a set of symptoms or syndrome caused by HIV. But it is not necessary that a person infected with HIV will definitely develop AIDS.

-A person infected with HIV is likely to develop symptoms of AIDS over a period of time when his/er immune system is too weak to fight HIV infection.

-This is the last stage of HIV when the infection is very advanced and if left untreated will lead to death.

-A person with HIV whose CD4 count falls below 200 per cubic millimetre is diagnosed with AIDS.
