Basic facts about HIV/AIDS
•HIV is a retrovirus•HIV is the virus that causes AIDS•HIV attacks T-cells (specifically called
CD4 cells)•HIV/AIDS is treatable, but not curable•You can’t tell by looking if a person is
living with HIV, the only way to know is by taking an HIV antibody test.

Origin•descendant of a Simian Immunodeficiency
Virus because certain strains of SIVs bear a very close resemblance to HIV-1 and HIV-2, the two types of HIV.

How could HIV have crossed species?
• The 'hunter' theory▫chimps being killed and eaten or their blood
getting into cuts or wounds on the hunter• The oral polio vaccine (OPV) theory
▫ journalist Edward Hooper suggests that HIV can be traced to the testing of an oral polio vaccine called Chat, given to about a million people in the Belgian Congo, Ruanda and Urundi in the late 1950s. To be reproduced, live polio vaccine needs to be cultivated in living tissue, and Hooper's belief is that Chat was grown in kidney cells taken from local chimps infected with SIVcmz. This, he claims, would have resulted in the contamination of the vaccine with chimp SIV

•The contaminated needle theory
▫likely that one single syringe would have been used to inject multiple patients without any sterilization in between. This would rapidly have transferred any viral particles (within a hunter's blood for example) from one person to another
How could HIV have crossed species?

Four of the earliest known instances of HIV infection are as follows:
•A plasma sample taken in 1959 from an adult male living in what is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
•A lymph node sample taken in 1960 from an adult female, also from the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
•HIV found in tissue samples from an American teenager who died in St. Louis in 1969.
•HIV found in tissue samples from a Norwegian sailor who died around 1976.

The 4 Fluids
•Blood•Semen•Breast Milk•Vaginal Fluids
These are the four fluids that transmit HIV. The key to protecting yourself from infection is to avoid these four
bodily fluids.
![Page 20: BACTERIA AND VIRUSES. The Good: BACTERIA Are Prokaryotic Unicellular organisms Has a role in maintaining health by inhabiting our intestine to aid in](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697c00c1a28abf838cc90a8/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Transmitting HIV
HIV is transmitted when one or more of the four fluids is transferred from one person to another. The most common ways HIV is transmitted is by:
•Unprotected sex•Sharing needles•Breastfeeding from infected mother to baby
![Page 21: BACTERIA AND VIRUSES. The Good: BACTERIA Are Prokaryotic Unicellular organisms Has a role in maintaining health by inhabiting our intestine to aid in](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697c00c1a28abf838cc90a8/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
HIV is not spread by casual contact.
• It dies quickly outside the body and is easily killed by soap and by common disinfectants such as bleach.
• There is no risk of HIV infection from: • donating blood• mosquito bites• toilet seats• shaking hands• hugging• sharing eating utensils• food or objects handled by people with HIV or AIDS• spending time in the same house, business, or public
place with a person with HIV/AIDS.

Preventing HIV:Sharing Needles/Breastfeeding
Needles should never be shared. When getting tattoos or piercings, make sure that new needles and new ink bottles are used.
Injection drug users should never share works. Works can be cleaned using bleach and water.
Mothers living with HIV should not breastfeed babies; prenatal care can help reduce the chance that babies of HIV-infected mothers are born with HIV.
