Would you die if you had AIDS?

this can be likely. AIDS is the last stage of HIV, but differs from Hiv in the Fact that AIDS has the ability to directly attack white blood cells because they have an natural resistance to them ( somehow). HIV rarely kills and People with Hiv live normal lives and may never contract AIDS ( since viruses are sometime unpredictable). you usually dont die from aids though, you usually die from complications of AIDS because your immune system and parts of your liver have been riddled away
