AIDS is an immune system disorder in which the bodys ability to defend itself is greatly diminished. When human immunodeficiency virus ( HIV, the virus that causes AIDS) invades key white blood(immune) cells called T lymphocytes and multiplies, it causes a breakdown in the bodys immune system, eventually leading to overwhelming infection and/ or cancerand , ultimately, to death.
Those who abuse drugs and those who engage in sexual intercourse with persons whose sex or drug history places them at risk of HIV, with persons whose sex or drug history is unknown, or who have had multiple partners, are likewise considered to be at risk for the disease.
Worldwide, more than 40 million people are carrying the HIV virus and more than 20 million have died of complications of AIDS. In Africa, roughly 8,500 new infections occur each day. Alarmingly, millions of people living outside industrialized countries are infected with HIV, and most of these cases are due to a different strain of the virus than cases commonly studied in the Unites states and Europe. An estimated 5 million people in low- and middle income countries do not have the AIDS drugs that could save their lives.
