There is no such thing as a "last stage" classification of AIDS. In the United States, a person is given and AIDS diagnosis if their cell counts drop below 200, but it is not classified as "last stage."

The difference between HIV and AIDS is a number.

That doesn't mean that everyone with HIV will end up with AIDS... but HIV and AIDS are the same thing; the difference is how much damage the HIV virus has done to your T-Cells.

Yes, the aids virus is still alive, but your body's immune response has been strengthened as evidenced by your increased cell count so you will not be as likely to have infections or other illnesses. Keeping your cell count up only provides you with more immunity to other forms of diseases, it does not irridicate the aids virus.


What are the causes of AIDS?

Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a condition related to the HIV virus. The term AIDS is used when a persons CD4 (white blood cell) count falls below 200 cells per microliter. This decline could be due to multiple factors, like failing to seek treatment, a drug resistant strain of the virus, poor life style choice but ultimately the cause for AIDS is the decline in white cells caused by the HIV virus. .
