Presentation Transcript

  1. HIV Bad disease.

  2. • HIV is a virus!!!

  3. M.O. Williams • Once HIV enters the body, it gets attached to a type of white blood cell called T lymphocyte which protects against infections. The RNA of the virus then gets converted to DNA by an enzyme that the virus produces. This viral DNA then gets incorporated into the DNA of the human cell , and remains there for the lifetime of that cell. The virus can even end up exploding the cell! When all of your T cells get attacked then you have no more protection against other viruses.

  4. HIV Spreads By… • HIV spreads through certain body fluids. It can be blood! …Or other bodily fluids… • The most common way the that HIV spreads is it is sexually transmitted. • This virus targets women more than men.

  5. Photograph! HIV is most common in Sub-Saharan Africa!

  6. WOAH Fact • As of 2010, 34 million people were recorded of having HIV world wide.

  7. !Bad News! • Sadly, there is not a vaccine for HIV. HIV has a unique way of evading the immune system and the human body seems incapable of mounting an effective immune response against the virus. So if you do end up getting it, then you are out of luck.
