HIV virus

From MicrobeWiki, the student-edited microbiology resource

Introduction

The human immunodeficiency virus is a virus that works by infecting the body and attacking the immune system. It is an RNA virus that spreads rapidly throughout the body and causes abnormalities to occur within the immune system and its responses. This, in turn, can lead to other diseases and immune abnormalities. It has been linked to many other diseases, and has infected over 75 million individuals.
