WAYS OF TRANSMISSION HIV is transmitted in a number
of different ways: Having sex (anal, vaginal, or oral), sharing needles
and syringes, being exposed before or during birth or through breast
feeding, blood transfusions.
EARLY SYMPTOMS OF HIV INFECTION About 60% will not
have any symptoms when they first become infected with HIV. About 40%
experiences symptoms between one week and two months after exposure to
the virus. This illness may include one or more of the following
symptoms:
- Fever
- Headache
- Tiredness
- Sore throat
- Enlarged lymph nodes
- Rash
These symptoms usually disappear within a week to a month and are
often mistaken for those of another viral infection. During this
period, people are very infectious, and HIV is present in large
quantities in genital fluids.
More persistent or severe symptoms may not appear for 10 years or
more after HIV first enters the body in adults, or within 2 years in
children born with HIV infection. This period of "asymptomatic"
infection varies greatly in each individual. Some people may begin to
have symptoms within a few months, while others may be symptom-free for
more than 10 years.
Even during the asymptomatic period, the virus is actively
multiplying, infecting, and killing cells of the immune system. The
virus can also hide within infected cells and lay dormant. The most
obvious effect of HIV infection is a decline in the number of CD4
positive T (CD4+) cells found in the blood-the immune system's key
infection fighters. The virus slowly disables or destroys these cells
without causing symptoms.
As the immune system worsens, a variety of complications start to
take over. For many people, the first signs of infection are large
lymph nodes or "swollen glands" that may be enlarged for more than 3
months. Other symptoms often experienced months to years before the
onset of AIDS include
- Lack of energy
- Weight loss
- Frequent fevers and sweats
- Persistent or frequent yeast infections (oral or vaginal)
- Persistent skin rashes or flaky skin
- Pelvic inflammatory disease in women that does not
respond to treatment
- Short-term memory loss
Some people develop frequent and severe herpes infections that cause
mouth, genital, or anal sores, or a painful nerve disease called
shingles. Children may grow slowly or be sick a lot.
