What is the bacterial and viral cause of HIV?

HIV stands for Human Immuno-deficiency Virus. It is probably a mutated monkey disease from Africa according to the latest theories. AIDS (Auto-Immune Deficiency Syndrome) is probably caused by contracting the HIV infection, but with appropriate early treatment HIV does not always cause the symptoms of AIDS. People with the HIV infection are always contagious - you can catch it from them unless you use proper precautions when you are exposed to their body fluids. You won't catch it by hugging or being in the same room with someone who has HIV, or AIDS. If you are having any kind of sex or intimate contact with someone with HIV or AIDS, talk to your doctor or clinic about how to be as safe as possible.
