Added: 2026-04-30

HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that attacks the immune system and can progress to AIDS if left untreated; it spreads through contact with infected bodily fluids such as blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk, primarily through unprotected sexual contact, sharing needles, or mother-to-child transmission; early diagnosis and antiretroviral therapy (ART) medications like Tenofovir, Lamivudine, Dolutegravir, and Efavirenz can effectively suppress the virus and allow people with HIV to live long, healthy lives; prevention methods include safe sex practices, avoiding needle sharing, using sterile blood transfusions, and regular HIV testing, with PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) available for high-risk individuals.
