"Which of the following statements is true of AIDS? If a person's CD4 count is above 200, it means that he or she has AIDS. AIDS is inherited. If a person is tested HIV-positive, it means that he or she has AIDS. AIDS is the final stage of HIV infection."

Respuesta :

Answer:

AIDS is the final stage of HIV infection

Explanation:

Having an HIV positive result does not mean  having AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome). That only signals that you have a HIV virus that kills CD4 T-cells in your body. As time passes by, if there are many CD4 T-cells killed, the body looses its ability to fight infection. When this happens, HIV can advance to AIDS. HIV infection advances to AIDS when there are less than 200 CD4 T-cells per cubic millimeter of blood. If you have less than 200 CD4 T-cells, it means you have a very weak immune system, and you can easily get very sick.
