Our immune system protects our body against diseases from germs like bacteria, fungi, or viruses. An immunodeficiency virus destroys certain cells of the immune system. With a decrease in immune cells, the immune system does not function as well as it should. As a result various infections and diseases continue to occur.

A person with undetectable viral load passes on HIV through:

• Blood
• Semen
• Vaginal fluid
• Anal mucus
• Breast milk

HIV is not transmitted by spitting, sneezing, or coughing.

Early HIV symptoms most often appear 2 to 4 weeks after being infected by the virus. From the very first few weeks, until the body has developed antibodies against the infection, an infected person can pass on HIV. In acute HIV infection, HIV is highly infectious because the virus is multiplying rapidly.

Both HIV 1  and HIV 2 have the same clinical consequences, left untreated both result in AIDS.

If you suspect you have been exposed to HIV, talk to your doctor about emergency treatment right away. PEP (post exposure prophylaxis) may prevent the HIV infection if it is started within three days after a possible exposure.

Doctors recommend HIV-1 and HIV-2 tests if someone has the symptoms of-

• Fatigue, fever, headache, loss of appetite, malaise,  and sweating
• Oral thrush, skin rash
• Dry cough
• Pain in swallowing
• Nausea, vomiting, persistent diarrhoea, and abdominal pain
• Swollen lymph nodes

HIV tests help detect the virus early, so one can start treatment, avoid spreading HIV, and may never get AIDS.

You don't need to fast before an HIV test. A counsellor from the health clinic may talk with you about the risks of HIV infection. If you have any questions, talk to him.

During the HIV Test

The HIV test analysis is done on a sample of your blood which will be collected by a phlebotomist at your home. The phlebotomist will arrive at the time you chose while booking and use a vein finder to help accurately locate the right vein. A new needle and syringe will be used to draw some blood and it will be poured into a sterilised container.
