O que é o VIH?
HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. A person becomes infected with HIV (HIV positive) when the virus enters their body.
The virus affects the body’s immune system, which protects your body against disease. However, HIV treatments are very effective and people living with HIV who are taking treatment can live long, healthy and happy lives.
What are the Symptoms of HIV?
You may not have any symptoms when you first get HIV, but you may feel sick or tired or like you have the flu. This is because your immune system is fighting against the virus. The symptoms usually go away in 2 or 3 weeks and may include:
Ached & pains
Fever
Fatigue
Headache
Skin rash
Sore throat
Sweating in bed at night
Not everybody has these symptoms which is why it is important to test regularly for HIV.
