HIV has various phases from wellness to illness: 1)Asymptomatic incubation period. Here is where the person goes from HIV negative to HIV positive because the first antibody is produced. Its called "seroconversion" 2)Acute Primary Infection. person may have systems but don't recoginze them. Aches, pains, swollen glands.... similar to the flu. 3)Asymptomatic Phase. HIV replicates in blood and certain tissues and slowly errodes the immune system. 4)Symptomatic Phase. Constant infections that are vertually impossible to fight off. Includes cognitive slowing, fever, night sweats, weight loss, oral leisons and many more... 5)Officially AIDS at this point. *CONCLUSION*** There is no way to physically tell if somebody is suffering from HIV. You could always ask them! IF YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW THINKS THAT THEY MIGHT HAVE AIDS THEN GO GET TESTED. THERE ARE CLINICS WHO WILL DO IT FOR CHEAP OR EVEN FREE. FOR THE SAFETY OF EVERYONE... GET TESTED.

Does someone with HIV have to tell their workmates?

== Absolutely not. Working with an HIV-positive person does not endanger anyone's health, so the choice of whether or not to tell your colleagues that you are HIV-positive is an entirely personal matter. == No. There is currently no requirement that you inform those you work with if you are HIV-positive. Note, however, that the idea that someone who is HIV-positive does not endanger anyone's health is not entirely true. Though someone who is HIV-positive does not normally endanger co-workers, if there is an accident or injury, it is possible that contact with blood or fluids will infect another individual. When rendering aid in emergency situations in the workplace (or elsewhere), precautions must be observed. It would be unwise not to take them. You should take them with regard to others, and if you are injured on the job, you should expect them to be taken with regard to you.

Someone whose blood contains antibodies to HIV is said to be?

HIV-positive. Being HIV-positive means that the individual has been exposed to the virus and their immune system has produced antibodies against it, which can be detected through blood testing. It does not necessarily mean they have developed symptoms of HIV or AIDS.
