Detection And Knowledge Of The Autoimmune Disease In The 1980s

HIV/AIDS is an issue that has been plaguing the world since detection and knowledge of the autoimmune disease in the 1980s. And since then the disease has spread rapidly throughout the world, while it is more prevalent in areas of poverty, it is making a strong appearance in the developed countries as well, such as the United States. HIV is a virus. And like all Viruses they cannot grow or reproduce on their own, they need to infect the cells of a living organism in order to thrive. The human immune system usually finds and kills viruses efficiently, however when HIV attacks the immune system itself, it annihilates the immune system and makes it difficult to fight the disease as well as many others. As HIV virus continues to wreak havoc onto

Many people in the 1980s have were infected with HIV by the use of blood transfusions and blood products which were not screened and were contaminated with the virus. In much of the world this is no longer a significant risk, as blood donations are routinely tested for HIV.HIV/AIDS can be passed through Injection when a person uses recreational drugs s: HIV can be passed on when injecting equipment that has been used by an infected person is then used by someone else. In many parts of the world, often because it is illegal to possess them, injecting equipment or works are shared. An infection from the virus, usually shows little to no symptoms in the beginning of the infection. However, as the infection progresses, an onslaught of symptoms appear. Common symptoms with an infection from HIV/AIDS, include: Some people experience a flu-like illness, develop a rash, swollen glands and most importantly the most significant symptom would be a drastic decrease in antibodies. Once HIV is detected, most people are prescribed drugs in order to slow the progression of the disease, however a cure still has not been found. (Avert,

Brown who has been living with HIV since 1995, was also suffering from Leukemia. Normally, when dealing with cancers the treatments include radiation therapy and chemotherapy. However, Brown’s condition and category of cancer Leukemia (Cancer of the white blood cell) prompted doctors to not only include radiation to kill the cancer cells, but an inclusion of a bone marrow transplant as well in order to produce new white blood cells. The same year Brown’s HIV was essentially gone, no longer existing in his body. The reason the virus remains undetectable in Brown, but high speculation and studies show that it was due to a bone-marrow transplant from a donor who had a rare genetic mutation that renders a person’s CD4-T cells the immune cells that are the main target of HIV infection resistant to the virus. It is also possible that radiation killed very nearly all of Browns cells that contained HIV at the outset of his treatment .Now in a small studies are in the process of replicating this “cure”, and attempting to make it available to others diagnosed with HIV/AIDS. Is it
