When it comes to AIDS, a lot of people talk about AIDS. On December 1, World AIDS Day, AIDS prevention and control has become a problem that the whole society has to face. Do you know some common knowledge about AIDS prevention? Today's editor will give you a general introduction.
AIDS is a very harmful infectious disease, caused by HIV infection. HIV is a virus that attacks the immune system. It takes the most important CD4T lymphocyte in the human immune system as the main target of attack, destroys the cell in a large amount and makes the human body lose its immune function. Therefore, the human body is easy to be infected with various diseases, and may develop malignant tumors, with a high mortality. The average incubation period of HIV in human body is 8-9 years. Before HIV, people can live and work without any symptoms for many years.
There are three ways of transmission of AIDS, namely, sexual contact transmission, blood transmission and mother to child transmission. It can be said that the root of AIDS infection is HIV. HIV mainly exists in the body fluids of HIV infected people and AIDS patients. Any behavior that makes these fluids enter other people's bodies may lead to the spread of HIV. Therefore, in order to effectively avoid HIV infection, the following behaviors that may lead to body fluid exchange with others should be avoided in daily life.
