Best Answer

The term 'numbers' in relation to HIV normally refers to the results of certain key blood tests that are used to monitor the progress of the disease and the effectiveness of any treatment. These numbers are: * absolute CD4 count (how many T cells are in a given volume of your blood)

* CD4 percentage (what percentage of your white blood cells are CD4 cells)

* viral load (how many copies of the HIV virus are circulating in a given volume of your blood)
