same thing People thought it was just gay people causing GRID or Gay Related Immune Disorder In 1983 two women who had sex with bisexual men got the virus so it was no longer confined to gay people Overtime people began to realize that it was anyone who had blood that was at risk In 1984 a collaborative effort between the US and France identified the virus which was then called HIV or Human Immunodeficiency Virus Once you get the virus it cause you to die of AIDS You do not die from HIV Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome Opportunistic Infections kill you In 1991 Magic Johnson was diagnosed with HIV Has lived so long because he is very proactive about it Has a lot of money with a chef and physical trainer Works to stay as healthy as popular When HIV started it specifically started with people that all had a same common fact about them They went to bathhouses in San Francisco Gay people used to go to them and have random sex San Francisco shut down the bathhouses People with HIV were no longer to donate blood Took a while to keep them from donating blood so there was an amount of time where HIV was spread through blood transfusions Once you acquire HIV you might seem healthy for a long time First thing that happens is that you get a cold that goes away Without treatment people can live 6 12 months The medications for HIV are very costly and make the patient very ill why they use marijuana The majority of the medicines are able to slow HIV down not get rid of it In terms of sex anal and vaginal intercourse is the most common activity that spreads the illness Also when you are having sex the person on the bottom has a higher rate of acquiring HIV than the insertive partner AIDS attacks your immune system and destroys it bit by bit Generally your body fights disease with helper T cells and B cells and they work together when you get sick to make you well HIV attacks the T cells very thoroughly Because of that the T cells do not signal the B cells to fight the The B cells need to produce healthy proteins to replace the diseased ones but cannot do it until signaled by the T cells To be classified as having HIV your T cell count done through a blood test illness is below 200 Normal T cell count is 500 1200 Below 200 makes you susceptible to anything Towards the end you develop dementia and die Some people do not show the symptoms for a decade or more If not diagnosed people usually died between 6 to 10 months When you have HIV you try to make it go into a dormant stage by eating healthy and exercising right Only comes out when the conditions in your body get bad DO NOT THINK THAT IT CANNOT HAPPEN TO YOU For a while 98 of AIDS cases were men Now the group of people getting AIDS the fastest is women between the ages of 24 and 35 WOMEN take control o Use protection o Get tested If you think that you might of acquired to get HIV get a baseline test 3 times over 18 months AIDS is a miserable and painful illness In the end you
