Why does a person with AIDS virus but with no symptoms of the disease have a high count of T4 cells?

A high T4 cell count indicates that the immune system is functioning well and that the HIV virus has not a significant impact. It is possible to have the HIV virus, be asymptomatic (have no symptoms of the disease) and have a well-functioning immune system. If, however, the virus continues to chip away at the immue system, this will change. Viral load will increase; t-cell counts will drop and you will see signs of illness.
