HIV and AIDS Testing
What are HIV and AIDS?
Is there a person who has not heard of HIV (which stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus)? Doubt this. HIV was discovered in 1981, and it is assumed that from January 2006 has killed more than 25 million people. HIV Infection can occur through several different ways, all involving some form of transfer of body fluids (which can be blood, semen and breast milk, to name a few).
Most people who contract HIV will eventually develop AIDS (which is almost synonymous with HIV, although it is not the same). AIDS stands for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, and basically means that at this time, the HIV patient's immune weakens gradually with time, so that the individual is highly susceptible to the disease and tumors. This can manifest in a variety of ways, including lung infections, gastrointestinal infections and neurological and psychiatric effects. It is very likely to eventually lead to death of the individual.
Is there a cure?
Although there is no vaccine or cure for AIDS or HIV, has been a lot of progress in the decades since the discovery of HIV. Therefore, effective methods that can slow its progress and reduce mortality rates.
Since the person who has contracted HIV can be involuntarily transferred to another person that most commonly occurs during sexual intercourse is very important for people who suspect they may have HIV to get themselves checked. There are several types of tests, including ELISA, Western blot, and rapid or point of care testing.
That said, it is important to remember that HIV tests are not perfect and can sometimes produce false positives, ie the person is healthy, but in reality the test reports that have HIV, as well as false negatives, ie the person is infected with HIV but according to evidence that is healthy.
However, the accuracy of HIV testing is increasingly better. In 2005, a western blot using an HIV test, the possibility of a false positive is approximately 1 in 250,000.
There are several organizations that provide this anonymous and confidential HIV testing. These tests can be done using urine samples, blood samples or saliva samples. There are also the home test kits that can be used at home.
In conclusion, if you suspect may have contracted HIV, I checked. It is essential not only for what they could receive treatment for you, but it does not infect your partner or family accidentally.
