AIDS is a condition that is a reflection of a person's immune function and has no impact on any cells of the body. HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is the virus that causes a person to develop AIDS.
HIV attacks blood cells that are associated with immune function. Red blood cells would be an example of cells unaffected by HIV. HIV attacks immune cells because it needs them to replicate. The more the virus replicates the more new virus is introduced into the system and more white blood cells are then affected.
