A virus called a retrovirus is a specific kind of pathogen that is HIV.

<h3>What is a retrovirus in simple terms?</h3>

A type of virus that contains RNA instead of DNA as a genetic substance. It uses an enzyme called reverse transcriptase to become part of the host cell's DNA.

In addition to the AIDS-causing virus, the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), there are two retroviruses that can cause illness in humans. One is called human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) and the other is called human T-lymphotropic virus type 2.
