HIV, the human immunodeficiency virus, is an STI that, if left untreated, can progress to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), compromising the immune system and increasing vulnerability to infections and certain cancers. To thwart the transmission of HIV and other STDs, prioritize safe sex practices using condoms or dental dams, undergo regular HIV and STI tests, and foster open communication with partners. Early detection, timely access to treatment, and adherence to medication regimens can effectively manage HIV and reduce the risk of developing AIDS. Promoting awareness, providing education, and implementing targeted prevention strategies play pivotal roles in stemming the spread of HIV and ensuring public health protection.
