human immunodeficiency virus

HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS: It destroys white blood cells called LYMPHOCYTES causing AIDS and other diseases that result from the impaired immunity.

Human Immunodeficiency Virus. HIV does not mean that someone has AIDS. Someone may have HIV for many years without getting AIDS. AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) comes about when your T-helper cell (what HIV attacks) count falls below 200. Some people remain AIDS free while still infected with HIV for a long time. During this time, however, it is still possible to pass the virus on to others.
