Overview

Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 (HIV-1) is a virus that affects the immune system and can lead to Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). HIV-1 is the predominant strain of HIV and is the cause for the majority of HIV infections globally. HIV-1 spreads between people through contact with blood, semen, and other bodily fluids, and is most commonly transmitted through sexual contact or intravenous drug use. Without proper treatment, HIV-1 can lead to serious health problems and even death. Early diagnosis and proper treatment of HIV-1 can help to prevent it from progressing to AIDS. Treatment options include antiretroviral therapy (ART), which can greatly reduce the amount of HIV-1 in the body, helping to prevent transmission and improve the quality of life for those infected.
