AIDs and HIV
HIV does not infect the nervous system but affects it. Since HIV suppresses the immune system, pathogens can attack the nervous system. The virus does not directly attack the nerves.
Yes, HIV can infect monkeys, causing a similar disease known as Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV). However, the specific strains of HIV that infect humans do not typically infect monkeys, and vice versa. Cross-species transmission events can occur in certain circumstances.
No, HIV primarily infects and targets cells of the immune system, specifically CD4 T cells. However, it can indirectly impact the nervous system by causing inflammation and affecting immune function, leading to HIV-associated neurological complications.
AIDS is a diagnosis given to people with advanced HIV infection, not a contagious disease. White gay men are infected with HIV at alarming rates, many times that of the general population. Men who have sex with men are the highest risk population for HIV infection in the United States.
Teens can be infect with HIV, which leads to AIDS.
