AIDS stands for Autio Immune Deficiency Syndrome. This means that the disease attacks and weakens the human immune system. This system is responsible for keeping you healthy by fighting off infections and viruses, among many other things, that are contantly attacking the human body.
In a healthy person, the immune system attacks and destroys viruses and such, but in a person with AIDS the immune system is too weak or almost non-existent and as a result, these viruses take hold; such as pneumonia. Actually, people with AIDS usually end up dying from such relatively simple things like pneumonia and not actually the disease (AIDS) itself.
Not that anyone knows of, But it could cause HIV/AIDS if the needle was used by another person which is impossible to cure (currently) and may lead to a flu which your body can not help because its white blood cells are dyeing. which may feel like pneumonia.
yes, kids may also get the aspiration pneumonia.
Well, the chances that someone has ONLY used meth in their life is very slim. AIDs can be obtained by sharing needles. Also, if you are in a high drug rush due to methamphetamine and you cannot recall your actions, you may have unknowingly had sexual intercourse with an infected person. Also, HIV and AIDs lowers the body's defense mechanisms by depleting the white blood cells which fight off pathogens and harmful microbes. So pneumonia can cause someone to only live for a few days if their body is unable to fight off the illness. Sorry about your luck.
Every year there are news reports of flu epidemics all over the country, along with deaths from both the flu and pneumonia. Knowing the symptoms of pneumonia can not only help an individual receive prompt care and treatment but can also prevent further illness or death. Types of Pneumonia With the high cost of medical care, many put off going to the doctor for what they believe is simply a cold or the flu. In many cases, what they believed was a simple cold was actually pneumonia. Many people don't really that there are two types of pneumonia. This lack of knowledge often results in failure to seek proper medical treatment. There is bacterial pneumonia and nonbacterial pneumonia. In bacterial pneumonia, symptoms generally occur during or right after a cold or upper respiratory infection. In nonbacterial pneumonia, symptoms may come on suddenly or gradually. Often the patient doesn't even realize they're sick. Symptoms of Pneumonia Just as there are two types of pneumonia, there may also be different symptoms of pneumonia, depending on the type. Being familiar with symptoms of pneumonia can make the difference in getting fast treatment to prevent the pneumonia from escalating into something more serious. Patients with bacterial pneumonia generally have a mucus-producing cough. The mucus may be green or yellow or may have blood in it. They may also have a fever and the chills. Bacterial pneumonia patients may also experience chest pains, with additional pain when coughing. They may also experience difficulty breathing or feel short of breath. Other symptoms include tiredness, weakness, vomiting, nausea and diarrhea. Nonbacterial pneumonia, which may be referred to as "walking pneumonia", does not exhibit as many symptoms so many sick individuals go untreated for a long time. The most common symptoms of nonbacterial pneumonia are fever and cough. There may be mucus associated with the cough. Some individuals may also experience shortness of breath. What is Pneumonia? Pneumonia results from an inflammation of the lungs usually caused by an infection. However, pneumonia can develop from breathing some chemical fumes. It may affect one lung or both lungs. Although pneumonia may be a mild disease, it also has the potential of becoming a dangerous disease if untreated. If individuals become familiar with the symptoms of pneumonia, it can mean faster treatment and faster recovery.
AIDS is usually caused by Less protective Sexual intercourse or intercourse with a already infected person. It also happens to a person if he/she uses a already used syringe, gets injected the blood of already infected person. Use of Condoms ( both male & female ) may help to reduce the chances of causing AIDS to a great extent. The person should take every protective measure possible.
AIDS is a disease caused by a virus, known as HIV (human immunity virus). If this virus is transmitted from an infected person to a healthy person, the formerly healthy person may also become infected. One common method the virus is transmitted - though no the only one - is through sexual intercourse.
Yes. But that baby may be born with H.I.V
This ammonia is in a gas or liquid state? Most chemicals can not walk. You may be referring to Walking Pneumonia. Rest and antibiotics are the key there. It is also a misnomer. Walking Pneumonia is serious and you should not be walking around with it.
AIDS patients have weakened immune systems, making them more susceptible to infections like pneumocystis pneumonia. Preventing these infections can be difficult because standard preventative measures like vaccinations may not be as effective in individuals with compromised immune systems. Additionally, the pathogen that causes pneumocystis pneumonia can be widespread in the environment, making it difficult to completely avoid exposure.
You could have a cold or the flu. You may also have something else like pneumonia and so on.
It depends on the severity and age of the person. I had pneumonia when I was pregnant with my daughter almost 10 years ago and I made it out just fine. There are lots of treatments available for pneumonia. Hope I've helped!
Pneumonia is very treatable in 2014. If caught early enough, a person can take a round of antibiotics and get better. In some cases, a person may need to be hospitalized to be treated.
