Why do AIDS victims die from different kinds of infectious disease rather than from a single AIDS disease?
Because AIDS is an auto-immune disease and your resistance to germs, viruses, and bacteria are lowered. This makes it very easy to catch an infectious disease and once the body's immune system is further compromised by being sick it is relatively easy for the organs to malfunction.

How does an ELISA indirectly detect infection by a disease causing agent?
An ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) indirectly detects infection by measuring the presence of specific antibodies in a patient's serum that are produced in response to a disease-causing agent, such as a virus or bacteria. When the body is infected, it generates antibodies against the pathogen, which can be captured by antigens coated on a microplate. The amount of bound antibodies is then quantified using an enzyme-linked secondary antibody and a substrate that produces a measurable signal, indicating past or current infection. This method allows for the indirect assessment of infection by detecting the immune response rather than the pathogen itself.
Is peritonitis contagious?
Peritonitis is an infection of the peritoneum. It requires prompt medical attention to fight any infection. It is not contagious but rather infectious.
