AIDS stands for "acquired immunodeficiency syndrome " a disease in human in which the body's human immune system breaks down.
a virus called human immunodeficiency virus HIV causes AIDS.

HIV specifically target key components of the cellular immune system and depletes the body's ability to fight infection.

in medical terminology HIV is a retrovirus which means it can copy its genetic material RNA in to DNA using a unique enzyme called reverse transcriptase.

India as one of the most populated countries in the world is suffering due to its poverty and lack of Healthcare. in the preliminary stage of AIDS the body's immune system is weekend does increasing the vulnerability to other diseases which will eventually kill the infected person.

HIV does not affect the person instantly it rather linkers in the body's immune system without noticeable signs.

this process can take about 6 to 8 years. this is commonly called the window and lasts for several weeks to about 3 months. it may take 5 years to 10 years for an HIV positive to develop AIDS.

AIDS is the later stage of HIV and is not curable. the symptoms for which includes unexpected weight loss and last plants night sweats fever diarrhea chills and coughs.

there are 4 primary ways by which HIV can be transmitted from an infected person to another.
blood semen vaginal secretion breast milk.

blood contains the highest concentration of virus followed by Saman vaginal blood and by breast milk. HIV does not survive easily outside the body so it is not transmitted through toilet seats by contact such as hugging kissing shaking hand or by sharing utensils while eating or drinking. nor it can be transmitted through insects such as mosquitoes.


the first case of AIDS came to light in the early 80s. in 1981 a victim of AIDS was found. in India HIV was detected for the first time in 1986 in Chennai. today no Indian state is free from HIV. a national AIDS control program has been in Operation since 1987 with the assistance of the World bank and other multilateral and bilateral donors.


the national AIDS control programme launched in 1922 is being implemented as a comprehensive programme for prevention and control of HIV or aids in India.


intensive behaviour change communication and provision of care and support and are required to curb AIDS related stigma discrimination and to maintain physical mental and social well being of people living with HIV or AIDS. steps taken by NSE and the general public are fighting the disease vigorously and one day its for the spread will be halted.

thanking you

A disease is a condition that impairs the proper functioning of the body or of one of its part. Every living thing, both plants and animals, can succumb to disease. People, for example, are often infected by bacteria, but bacteria, in turn, can be infected by viruses.



Hundreds of different diseases exist. Each has its own particular set of symptoms and signs, clues that enable a physician to diagnose the problem. A symptom is something a patient can detect, such as fever, bleeding or pain. A sign is something a doctor can detect, such as a swollen blood vessel or an enlarged internal body organ.

Every disease has a cause, although the causes of some remain to be discovered. Every disease also displays a cycle of onset, or beginning, course, or time span of affliction, and end, when it disappears or it partially disables or kills its victim.

i. An epidemic disease is one that strikes many persons in a community.

ii. When it strikes the same region year after year it is an endemic disease.



iii. An acute disease has a quick onset and runs a short course. For example an acute heart attacks.

iv. A chronic disease has slow onset and runs sometimes for year. The gradual onset and long course of TB makes it a chronic ailment.

On the basis of their occurrence diseases are of two types: – congenital and acquired disease. Congenital diseases are inborn diseases present from the birth & which are generally inheritable. These diseases occur due to gene or chromosomal mutations, e.g. Colour blindness, thalassemia etc. Detailed study is given in human genetics chapter.

Acquired diseases which are caused by pathogens from infected persons to healthy one are infectious diseases. These occur only after birth & are non-inheritable. Acquired diseases are of two types –



Communicable diseases (Infectious) are those that can be passed among persons such as by means of airborne droplets from a cough or sneeze. Tiny organisms such as bacteria and fungi can produce infectious diseases.

So can viruses. So can tiny worms. Whatever the causative agent might be, it survives in the person it infects and is passed on to another or its eggs are passed on.

Sometimes, a disease-producing organism gets into a person who shows no symptoms of the disease. The symptomatic carrier can then pass the disease on to someone else without even knowing he has it.

Non-communicable diseases (Non-infectious) are caused by malfunctions of the body. These include organ or tissue degeneration, erratic cell growth, and faulty blood formation and flow. Also included are disturbances of the stomach and intestine, the endocrine system, and the urinary and reproductive systems.

Some diseases can be caused by diet deficiencies, lapses in the body’s defense system, or a poorly operating nervous system. Advances in medical science make it possible to prevent and treat many diseases that once caused death
