sexual contact.

Almonti
(2003) postulated that HIV is cause of
the spectrum of disease known as HIV/AIDS. HIV is a retrovirus that primarily
infects components of the human immune system such as CD4+ T – cell
and microphages and dendritic cells. It indirectly destroys CD4+
T-cells.

Sepkowitz
(2001), HIV/AIDS as a disease of the human immune system caused by human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV). During the initial infection, a person may
experience brief period of influenza like illness. This is typically followed
by a prolonged period without symptoms. As illness progresses, it interferes
more and more with the immune system making the person much more likely to get
infections, including opportunistic infections and tumours that do not usually
affect people who have working immune system.

cause of AIDS, two strains have been identified, HIV 1 and HIV 2.

Weiss
(1993) identified human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) as a lenti-virus, a member
of the retrovirus family that causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS),
a condition in humans in which progressive failure of the immune system allows
life-threatening opportunistic infections and concers to thrive.
