AIDS-Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome is a sexually transmitted disease caused by Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). It interferes with the immune system by reducing the number of CD4+T-cells. Due to this the patient becomes more prone to opportunistic infections.

It is characterized by swollen lymph nodes, fever, drastic weight loss, and deficient immune responses.
It transmits from one individual to another via unprotected sexual activities, use of infectious needles or razors, transfusion of infected blood or child birth.
