Is HIV oncogenic?
HIV itself is not directly oncogenic, but it is associated with an increased risk of certain cancers due to its immunosuppressive effects. The virus leads to a prolonged state of immune deficiency, which can result in opportunistic infections and malignancies like Kaposi's sarcoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and invasive cervical cancer. These cancers are often linked to co-infections with oncogenic viruses, such as HPV and EBV, rather than HIV directly causing cancer. Thus, while HIV contributes to cancer risk, it does so indirectly through immune system compromise.
What is HPV and Aids?

Both infections can have serious health implications but are preventable and manageable with appropriate treatment.
