Answer:

HIV is an acronym for Human Immunodeficiency Virus

It is a virus that attacks cells that help the body fight infection, making a person more <u>vulnerable</u> to other infections and diseases. It is spread by contact with certain bodily fluids of a person with HIV, most commonly during unprotected sex (sex without a condom or HIV medicine to prevent or treat HIV), or through sharing injection drug equipment.

If left untreated, HIV can lead to the disease AIDS which is Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome

The human body can’t get rid of HIV and no effective HIV cure exists. So, once you have HIV, you have it for life. Hope this helps!
