THE STAGES OF
HIV INFECTION

HIV progresses in stages, starting with acute infection, where flu-like symptoms may appear 2-4 weeks after exposure. It then enters a clinical latency phase, often without symptoms, which can last for years. If untreated, HIV weakens the immune system, leading to early symptoms like fatigue. In the final stage, AIDS, the immune system is severely compromised, making the body vulnerable to infections. Early detection and treatment can manage the virus and prevent progression. In modern day medicine, HIV infection is less likely to progress towards aids, due to the availability and ease of access to the latest advancements in HIV medications.

WHO SHOULD
GET TESTED FOR HIV?

The CDC recommends everyone aged 13–64 get tested for HIV at least once as part of routine care. Those at higher risk, such as individuals with multiple partners, men who have sex with men, people who share needles, those diagnosed with STIs, and pregnant women, should test more frequently.

This is a heading.
