Detailed explanation-1: -HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is a virus that attacks the body’s immune system. If HIV is not treated, it can lead to AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome).
Detailed explanation-2: -HIV has a long time of incubation until it can start affecting the immune system, which is almost ten years. The immune system is the natural defence mechanism of the human body, and thus, HIV will make it difficult for the patient to fight against diseases.
Detailed explanation-3: -The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is grouped to the genus Lentivirus within the family of Retroviridae, subfamily Orthoretrovirinae [1]. On the basis of genetic characteristics and differences in the viral antigens, HIV is classified into the types 1 and 2 (HIV-1, HIV-2).
