Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS)
AIDS impairments result from infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). A person infected with HIV gradually loses immune function, becoming less able to resist numerous ailments and cancers, which eventually result in death withing few years.

AIDS was first identified in homosexual men in the early 1980s.
One to three weeks after infection with HIV, most people experience a brief period of flulike symptoms and a vague feeling of discomfort. HIV reproduces to high concentrations and establishes infections throughout the body. Individuals are usually highly infectious during this phase.

Infected individuals then enter a prolonged symptom-free phase that can last ten years or more. They remain in good health, although HIV continues to reproduce, progressively destroying the immune system. Eventually, an infected person experiences rapidly falling levels of CD4 T-cells and opportunistic infections that are not life-threatening, a phase that can last up to several years.

Finally an infected person suffers extensive immune destruction and serious illness during a phase that may also last months or years. The immune system fails, and death from severe opportunistic infections and cancers follows.

HIV is spread through the exchange of body fluids such as semen and blood. It is generally  transmitted by sexual contact. HIV is also spread through unsterilized syringes and needles such as those shared among people abusing intravenous (IV) drugs. It is still considered as incurable
but treatment may prolong life to some extent.
Quotes about AIDS
AIDS obliges people to think of sex as having, possibly, the direst consequences: suicide. Or murder.

Susan Sontag (b. 1933), U.S. essayist. AIDS and Its Metaphors, 



AIDS occupies such a large part in our awareness because of what it has been taken to represent. It seems the very model of all the catastrophes privileged populations feel await them.

Susan Sontag 



Any important disease whose causality is murky, and for which treatment is ineffectual, tends to be awash in significance.

Susan Sontag 



From the point of view of the pharmaceutical industry, the AIDS problem has already been solved. After all, we already have a drug which can be sold at the incredible price of $8,000 an annual dose, and which has the added virtue of not diminishing the market by actually curing anyone.

Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941), U.S. author, columnist. 



The moral immune system of this country has been weakened and attacked, and the AIDS virus is the perfect metaphor for it. The malignant neglect of the last twelve years has led to breakdown of our country’s immune system, environmentally, culturally, politically, spiritually and physically.

Barbra Streisand (b. 1942), U.S. singer, actor.
