INTRO TO HIV/AIDS
• HIV- Human Immunodeficiency Virus, is a virus that infects cells of the
immune system, destroying or impairing their function.
• AIDS- Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome, advance stage of HIV

HOW HIV/AID SPREADS
Agent: Causes of the Disease (The virus)
Host: Carrier of the disease (Race, Sex, Age)
Vector: The Carrier, living organism
Environment: portal entry.
Place where the disease can spread, look at risks of
individuals.

HOW HIV/AID SPREADS
• HIV transmitted directly. (Person to person,
Interaction of the human host)
• infectious or other type of agent.

CAUSES OF HIV/AIDS
Transmission Channels
• Enter the body through any tear in

vaginal and cervical secretions,

of infected blood.

UNDER THE MICROSCOPE
The presence of HIV scanning
by an electron micrograph
HIV particles or Virions

FOUR STAGES OF HIV/AIDS

(they taught me all I knew)
their names are What, Why,
When, How, Where and who.
