AIDS or Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome is a condition caused by the Human Immune Deficiency Virus (HIV), which slowly destroys the ability of the body to fight infections or diseases. When enough of the immune system is destroyed the person cannot resist infections, and therefore, gets repeated illness by both common and uncommon disease causing organisms such as bacteria and viruses. No effective cure for HIV currently exists, but with proper treatment and medical care, HIV can be controlled.
