AIDS is caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), which attacks the immune system, leading to a progressive decline in immune function. Poliomyelitis, or polio, is caused by the poliovirus, which primarily affects the nervous system and can lead to paralysis. Both diseases are viral infections, but they are caused by different viruses and have distinct modes of transmission and impacts on the body. Vaccination plays a crucial role in preventing polio, while HIV prevention strategies include safe practices and antiretroviral therapy.
