STAGE 4 : Progression from HIV to AIDS

 

 

As the immune system becomes more and more damaged the illnesses that present become more and more severe leading eventually to an AIDS diagnosis.
At present in the UK an AIDS diagnosis is confirmed if a person with HIV develops one or more of a specific number of severe opportunistic infections or cancers. However people can still be very ill with HIV but not have an AIDS diagnosis.
