When you have a low white blood cell count mean you have aids?
A low white blood cell count, specifically a low count of CD4 T cells, can be a sign of AIDS, which is the advanced stage of HIV infection. However, a low white blood cell count can be caused by various other conditions and factors, including other infections, autoimmune diseases, and certain medications. Therefore, while a low count may indicate the progression of HIV to AIDS, it is not exclusively indicative of AIDS. A proper diagnosis requires comprehensive testing and evaluation by a healthcare professional.

If you have the HIV virus, and your T-Cell count is below 200, then you are considered (from that point forward, regardless of your T-Cell count) an AIDS patient. 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.
