Causes And Symptoms And How To Prevent HIV Infection

AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome) or Low immune syndrome in May, is a virus infection caused by the so-called HIV virus. HIV infection refers to the condition of a person who no longer has the immune system so that different diseases can be attacked and very difficult to treat. Almost all of the people living with AIDS have died, as there has not yet been any disease to treat AIDS.

People living with HIV/AIDS in Indonesia continue to grow from one year to the next. There is no doubt that this situation is alarming. In early 2004, there are six priority districts for the large number of HIV/AIDS cases, namely, Jakarta, Papua and Bali, East Java, West Java and Riau. Subsequently, at the end of 2004, six more provinces, West Kalimantan, North Sulawesi, North Sumatra, Central Java and Jakarta, grew.

AIDS is the final stage of HIV infection. But not all people living with HIV will suffer from the symptoms of AIDS. AIDS can be transported through sexual intercourse, childbirth, breastfeeding and blood contact with the infected.

Symptoms of HIV infection

Symptoms of HIV/AIDS at an early stage

Most people at risk of HIV infection are unaware of the symptoms of the early stage of HIV infection. Because, there are no glaring symptoms starting early infections occurred shortly after, perhaps even many years later. Although HIV infection is not associated with the early symptoms of HIV infection, the person will be infected with HIV in the blood. The infected person will be very easy to transfer HIV to others, regardless of whether the infected are subsequently exposed to AIDS or not. To determine whether the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the person's body is infected with the virus test.

Symptoms of HIV/AIDS Middle School

The symptoms of HIV infection at the intermediate stage were more pronounced, such as recurrent influenza: inactivity, fever, sweating, muscle aches, enlarged lymph glands, cough.

Symptoms of HIV infection and other infections of the mouth and frequent skin, such as canker sores, or other common infections symptoms that always relapse due to low body immunity.

HIV/AIDS symptoms

Symptoms of HIV infection are also called the symptoms of the final stage of AIDS, namely, rapid weight loss, chronic diarrhoea, coughing and shortness of breath (inflammation lung, which has widened TB), patches or pink or purple sores (skin cancer called sarcoma sarcoma), dizzy, confused, and contagious from

The cause of HIV/AIDS

The cause of HIV/AIDS is HIV infection, which attacks the immune system so that the body's defensive cells are affected. People living with HIV have become vulnerable to all forms of infection. During the final stages, sufferers cannot stand against germs that usually can be easily dioña.

HIV infection is transmitted through intercourse, whether vaginal, anus or HIV-related, such as blood through syringes, infants born to HIV-infected mothers and blood transfusion,

If you feel you have been infected with HIV immediately check with your doctor. Avoid places that many attacks from the disease. Do not engage in intercourse and prevent pregnancy, not be a blood donor, semen or organ of the body.

Addition: HIV/AIDS transmission cannot be transmitted through social communication such as handshake and hugging. Food or eating utensils. Toilets and swimming pools. Mosquito bites or other insects, as well as free blood-donated human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

How to prevent HIV/AIDSAIDS prevention is relatively easy compared to treatment. HIV prevention will become increasingly important for this disease. The following are some of the methods of prevention of HIV-AIDS-related diseases :

1. Originality with your husband or wife. Do sexual intercourse with your husband only (safe sex).
2. Avoid free sex (free sex). Do not engage in intercourse with sex workers (p) or alternating pair.
3. Use condoms properly in sexual intercourse with the exception of couples who want a child. Condoms can reduce the risk of injury, but they are unable to prevent it altogether. Condoms made of animal membranes (membrane) are very thin to be able to protect.
4. Avoid abuse of illicit drugs and drugs and use of syringes together.
5. If you want to acupuncture, tattoos, hack the ears or make sure that the users used have been sterilized.
6. When you need surgery, we recommend that you ask self-blood to convert the donated blood, i.e., to be used later alone.

Global precautions for the prevention of HIV infection

The principle of precautions to avoid AIDS is absolutely essential for groups that are vulnerable to HIV infection. This principle is known as the global Precautions (blanket precaution) doctrine, i.e. guidelines on how to combat infection to protect medical, sick and other workers so that they avoid different diseases that spread through the blood and body fluids.

Global AIDS prevention precautions include HIV infection :

1. How to handle and dispose of sharp objects that can cause wounds, cracks or holes. This included needles, hypotenuse, scalpel, scissors, leaking devices, saws, broken glass, etc.
2. Clean your hands with soap and water before and after doing all the operating procedures.
3. Wear protective tools such as robes, gloves, masks, and goggles when forced to contact with blood and other bodily fluids.
4. Clean-up, sterilization and other polluting substances.
5. Dealing with soiled lids, bedding, and floors that affect the stain as appropriate.

Although the principle of global precautions for the prevention of AIDS is primarily directed at medical personnel, there is no harm if we are all anxious and vigilant to prevent injuries caused by needles, knives, scissors and other acute infections, especially when living side by side with people living with HIV.
